Acoustics Reign on J.R. Bohannon’s ‘Fluctuation Pt. 1′

J.R. Bohannon is an American guitarist who advances the sounds that can be accomplished with simple acoustic guitars. Using just a 12-string, he's able to create huge soundscapes that many full bands can only dream of achieving. Today, you can hear his new track, "Fluctuation Pt. 1." Where Bohannon excels is allowing his music to breathe and expand. Simple acoustic riffs turn and evolve as the song goes on, allowing for more intricacies. There's a swell of emotion accomplished by this, a lone acoustic able to account for a giant surge of music. It's not something to be missed.

Hear "Fluctuation Pt. 1" below, and look out for Reconcavo on Auasca Records. Check out the album artwork and Bohannon's tour dates as well.
