Richard Leo Johnson will perform at 7:30 p.m. today at The Joint in North Little Rock. Admission is $25.
Johnson, a native of El Dorado who now lives with his wife, Jane, in Savannah, Ga., is a noted self-taught acoustic guitarist whose most recent local performance was at the Ron Robinson Theater in Little Rock a year ago, when he not only played guitar but displayed photographic images that he had recently rediscovered after losing much of his archives in a fire while living in Eureka Springs.
During his career as an architectural photographer, Johnson has released albums that have been described as idiosyncratic. He has released two albums for the prestigious jazz label Blue Note Records, three on the Cuneiform label and two independently. He has named as his influences Leo Kottke, Pete Townshend and John McLaughlin.
