Terry Mojo Johnson WILD GUITAR MUSIC SHOW

 Terry’s solo gig is a high-energy, "one-man-band" that leans heavily on showmanship, craftsmanship, and a massive variety of classic rock and country hits.
​Here is a breakdown of what makes his show unique:
​1. The "Wild" Instrument Collection
​This is the main hook. Terry isn't just playing standard acoustic covers; he’s playing custom-built, functional art.
​The Gear: He uses instruments made from repurposed items like a Rachael Ray frying pan, a Harley motorcycle part, a snowmobile ski, and even a 1-string garden hoe. 
​The Sound: Specifically, he highlights a 3-string baseball bat guitar. Because these instruments are handmade from unconventional materials, they produce tones you literally cannot hear anywhere else. 
​2. The One-Man Band Setup
​Terry has built a "wall of sound" by himself to ensure the performance feels like a full band:
​Self-Produced Backing: He recorded his own bass and percussion tracks.
​Live Control: He uses foot controls to trigger these tracks, allowing him to stay live and improvisational while maintaining a full, rhythmic backbone.
​Multi-Instrumentalist: In addition to his "wild guitars," he incorporates Saxophone, Harmonica, and Vocals, giving the set a lot of dynamic range.
​3. The Setlist
​The repertoire is a "Who's Who" of American rock, blues, and country, designed to keep a crowd engaged. It spans several decades:
​Classic Rock: The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, The Rolling Stones, The Doors, and The Beatles.
​Southern/Blues Rock: ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, SRV, and George Thorogood.
​Modern/Outlaw Country: Tyler Childers, Chris Stapleton, Johnny Cash and Jelly Roll.
​Feel-Good Anthems: Jimmy Buffett, Steve Miller Band, and Van Morrison.
​Summary of the Vibe
​"It’s a sonic curiosity shop." >
You go for the novelty of seeing a guy shred on a garden hoe or a frying pan, but you stay because the sound is filled out with professional-grade backing tracks and soulful sax/harp playing. It’s clearly a labor of love for Terry, focusing on "making music better" through constant invention.

    Mojo's story 

    This is Terry Mojo Johnson. I've been entertaining audiences from schools to national tv shows and everyplace in between. I caught the eye of the Rachael Ray TV show with a guitar I made from one of her frying pans that ended with me playing on her show. I've been making and playing many different instruments professionally and one thing for sure everybody from young to old likes to hear me play them and hear the stories of how and why. Each instrument has a story. I have many viral instrumental videos on my band's Facebook page The Swamp Drivers.  Many of the instruments were made from reclaimed items that some people would have thrown out, but I took these items, built instruments and make music that people from around the world buy my CD's.  I make the show fun and entertaining.
