🎵John Wines' Hidden Guitar Talent used to be reserved for his music students only. That all changed, though when the Rock and Roll Old Grey Guitarist (pegged by Howie Mandel as "OLD MAN HALEN" decided to start posting rock and roll cover songs on Tik Tok. While you might recognize John from the TV Show America's Got Talent - before John Wines, aka The Old Grey Guitarist, auditioned for the TV Show he had unintentionally gone viral on Tik Tok playing guitar covers of famous rock and roll guitarists. While many recognize him from Simon Cowell's show, over 1.4 million people around the world tune into his Tik Tok, Instagram, and YouTube every week to be hypnotized by his flawless playing. I had the honor of sitting down with John to dig up his roots. In this episode, we talk about John's childhood, how he was first exposed to music/his first guitar, all the way through meeting his wife and their Vegas Wedding!! Of course, we also talk about the moment divine music intervention struck him in his late 20's changing the course of his life forever. 🎵 #eddievanhalen #rockandroll #documentary #podcast #americasgottalent #oldgreyguitarist #johnwines 🎶 Roots Music History | Music Journalist & YouTube Podcaster 🎶 🎸Stories of Divine Music Intervention 🎸 *Member of the US Press Association* 🇺🇸 ✅ FOLLOW JOHN WINES OLD GREY GUITARIST 🎸YouTube: https://bit.ly/3vva4tI ( @oldgreyguitarist9069 and @OldGreyGuitaristBand ) 🎸TIK TOK: https://www.tiktok.com/oldgreyguitarist 🎸Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldgreyguitarist/ 📩 Email: oldgreyguitarist@gmail.com ✅ FOLLOW ROOTS 🎸YouTube: https://bit.ly/429ZPoO 🎸Spotify: https://spoti.fi/44YtxPG 🎸 Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3MSzMOy 🎸Search @ROOTSMUSICHISTORY 🎸Follow on Instagram, too! https://www.instagram.com/rootsmusichistory ✅ Other Mentioned Links from Episode: 🎸 Joe Bonamassa: https://www.instagram.com/joebonamassa/ ✅Divine Music Intervention Special Edition Mugs: https://ab63fe-4.myshopify.com Episode Chapters: 0:00-1:08 Introduction 1:08-2:05 John’s Childhood & First Guitar 2:05-3:24 Teens and Early 20’s 3:24-5:05 Youth Service Volunteer Work 5:05-6:51 John & Julie Meet and Fall in Love 6:51-7:49 John Faces Sudden Unemployment 7:49-9:29 John’s Divine Music Intervention Moment 9:29-11:01 John’s #1 Mentor, Tim Wedlake & Teaching Career 11:01-15:57 John Discovers Tik Tok 15:57-19:08 John Is Stabbed By The Eagles Copyright Sword 19:08-21:12 Old Grey Guitarist Goes Viral on Tik Tok 21:12-23:39 John Applies for America’s Got Talent TV Show 23:39-26:56 John Wines Americas Got Talent Audition 26:56-29:49 Old Grey Guitarist Post AGT 29:49-31:10 John Wines Guitar Lessons | Formal Courses 31:10-32:16 The Opportunity to Learn from The Best Guitar Teacher! 32:16-33:38 John Wines Advice To Young Guitarists 33:38-34:40 The Old Grey Guitarist’s Impact on the International Guitar Network 34:40-35:15 THE OLD GREY GUITARIST BAND IS BORN! 35:15-36:50 John Wines: An Inspiration to Everyone 36:50-37:32 COLLABORATE with The Old Grey Guitarist & OGG BAND 37:32-39:14 How to Support Roots Music & Conclusion ✅ General Merchandise Store 👉https://www.youtube.com/@ROOTSMUSICHISTORY/store 🎹Binge Watch the ROOTS Music History Podcast🎹 https://youtu.be/WAQR_C5X7u0 ✅Become a Roots Music History Member (Level 3 = Members Only Videos): 🎸https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJg8X32rClhf_7M4oBlAjyA/join 🔥For Collaboration and Business inquiries:🔥 📩 Email: rootsmusichistory@gmail.com 🔥For Suggested Discographies & Other History in the Making🔥 📩 Email: roots.newmusic@gmail.com Disclaimer: We do not accept any liability for any loss or damage incurred from you acting or not acting as a result of watching any of my publications.
