BigJohn Deere: born John Dean Carroll in Seattle, WA December 24, 1972. Musical styles/influences can be seen at my be channel BigJohnDeere100, and ProgRockguy72. BJD started his music career when he was 6 with weekly piano lessons, moving to drums, bass, and finally devoting most of his time to the art of guitar. BJD is currently working on his first album entitled "Game Of Tones." and will include a wide range of musical tastes and styles. BJD's sound can be described as "supercharged indie garage jam smooth techno meets Joe Satriani with a lil twist."
BJD also recently received an award for Best Blues Instrumental from The Akademia Music Awards for his hot new single, Beer Can Alley!
