Artist History The Johnson Brothers have traditionally specialized in performing meticulously reproduced renditions of challenging large-band material rarely heard in either concert halls or local clubs. For example, the band served as the on-stage orchestra for the University of Kentucky production of "The Who's Tommy" and recently performed every molecule of The Beatles' "Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" in what is believed to be the album's first and only complete live performance ever.

Group Members Band members include Bill Fairchild (bass), Jim Gleason (guitar, guitar synth, lap steel), Dave Hamon (drums, keyboards), Steve Pasquariello (guitar), Phil Simmons (keyboards) and Marty Walker (drums). All sing.

Instruments Guitar, bass, keyboards, drums
