"The Chair" Jonathan Cullifer & Country River

Post by Bill Ferguson »

A few weeks ago we had our semi-annual GA Peach Jam. The band I work with, Country River, was gracious to come to the show and back up Jonathan Cullifer.

Jonathan is a student at Belmont College in Nashville, TN.
I first met Jonathan 11 years ago, when he had just purchased his first steel (10 years old). He was amazing in just a couple of weeks. Now, Jonathan is 20 years old and plays, well let me say, FINE.

Here is a clip from that show.
I'm in awe of his playing and YOUTH

Hi Mr. Ferguson, I first heard about Jonathan after buying a new Carter D-10. The Carter site has a photo of a ten year old Jonathan sittin' behind a new Carter. What a fine player he's turned out to be...how could he miss with a mentor like you. Bet his folks are proud, I'm sure you're proud of him, too. Sure wish I'd taken up PSG when I was 10. I'm sure he doesn't know it, but he's helped me a time or two (via this Forum) with his technical knowledge. BTW, I enjoyed your tribute to John Hughey.
