John Egan has a unique sound ranging from traditional country blues to a more modern songwriter style.  He is a masterfully skilled guitar player who uses poetic lyrics and vintage resonator guitars to create an expressive personal music. Often performing solo, Egan’s guitar style includes, in effect, playing bass, lead, and percussion, all at the same time. He says, “the rarefied air where Lightnin’ Hopkins met Townes Van Zandt serves as an inspiration and an ideal.”

7 Questions from Shane has offered some interesting moments and tickled more than a couple funny bones with the artists who perform at McGongiel's Mucky Duck in Houston Texas.

We began the interviews as a part of our The Live from Norfolk Street concert recording series that we began with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was our way to help maintain the connection between our performing artists and their fans while we couldn't meet in person.

We release one episode a week, every Monday.
