Hiland grew up in Maine with an eye condition called nystagmus, which left him legally blind. He began playing guitar at the age of two, entered his first talent show at five, appeared on Dick Stacey’s Country Jamboree on local television at seven, and won Talent America at ten together with his sister Jodi and brother Jerry as “The 3 J’s,” performing bluegrass and country music. The group ended when Johnny turned fifteen due to his voice changing. After picking up the electric guitar at twelve, he shifted his focus to country, rock, and blues. Career In 1996, Hiland moved to Nashville and worked as a session musician for various country artists, including Toby Keith, Ricky Skaggs, Janie Fricke, and Hank Williams III. During this time, he also performed with the Don Kelley Band at Robert’s Western World. Hiland later signed with Steve Vai’s Favored Nations label as a solo artist. More information
