    Never heard of this guy until the last episode of 2 bears 1 cave and Ron White recommended him. Glad I gave it a listen.

      Same here. This audience doesn't deserve him. This guy is great.

      I met him back when it was just him,...early 90's in Austin. Been a fan and inspired musician since.

    I came across a video twenty years ago with Monte in a small venue doing Romeo and Juliet. As a fan of acoustic guitar from the time I bought my first Yamaha FG in "83, I have been a fan ever since!

    Can't believe I missed him at Sam's burgers this year. Super small club in San Antonio. I saw him a couple of years ago. Literally could have reach out and touched his shoes. Jesus, I look at the view numbers, I mean seriously what kind of world do we live in.

    I think this dude could sing any song in the world and make it sound better than the original artist. I have seen Monte live 3 or 4 times.

    So awesome to see Monte getting some love and recognition outside here in Austin....Austinites have been catching Monte's shows localy since the 90's and he's not only the best acoustic rock guitarist on the planet, he puts on a great show. Always has. Check out his cover of 'Sara Smile' if you haven't already....it was good enough to get him invited on Live From Daryl's House a few years back.

    Great version of this classic song with some super chord voicings. Monte seems like a really nice bloke too. May he prosper.

    Beautiful playing. Soon that guitar will be old enough to be having a drink with Willie Nelson’s. ..somewhere Lenny Breau is smiling.

    This is just sick. In a great way! He takes a song and makes it his. Kind of wonder how he developed his style of playing. So different, and fresh.

      I wrote to Daryl Hall's fan club and told them about Monte doing Sara Smile; I thought Daryl would like it. The rest is history! Well, that's my take on it anyway...

    Saw you at a theater in Clovis New Mexico around 1997 and then you went over to a small bar same night and played a little bit more for a small crowd. I've been a fan ever since and really hope you are doing well though this damndemic :( Wondering if you are ever planning any new material in the future?!?!?!

    Stress free playing. Most of electric guitarists lug their racks and boxes around. We sit down and play wherever we are.

      I see your point, but usually artists dont mind and are even complemented if you sing their song, as long as you give them credit.
