JTE is a gorgeous, terribly tortured magician of song. Hope he finds his peaceful path.

covering townes. this man was the only one to cover townes with the same depth as townes himself.

[@jensbradley8768]

So sorry he is gone.

[@prodigaltrev]

Got to meet him in Richmond, VA in 2008 or 2009. Had no clue who he was. He hypnotized me with his picking style and became a fan. Rest well, brother

[@jprmac1]

Love his unique strumming technique

[@lurk7967]

I have watched a lot of JTE vids
He only uses his thumb and index when playing usually.
Just like Merle Travis even though the first song in this vid is not Travis picking he still only uses his thumb and index...

[@bacardi119]

What a great performance.

Got to hang out with him a bit at
The legendary Air Devil's several years ago.

You just ended my night perfectly by playing Rex's blues and for that, I thank you!!

[@langstongrandma]

Damn it. Such a great talent, gone way too soon. He had so much more to teach us. You will always be missed.
