Johnny Mullenax, a Tulsa native, grew up in a musical family and started playing guitar at age 5.
In his teens, he followed his family to the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas. In typical Johnny fashion, he showed up with just a guitar and ended up sleeping in a stand-up bass case.
At 18, he used a friend’s ID to get into a club, where he became part of a live hip hop band backing rappers.
According to Johnny, “Life is too short to play one style of music, and if you have an opportunity to try something different, then you should give it a shot.”
Claiming wide-ranging influences from AC/DC and The Ramones to John Coltrane and Parliament, Johnny calls his genre-bending sound a funky country bluegrass good time!
