About Me

Jonny Lipford is an 18-year-old self taught musician from northern Florida. He began playing the Native American Flute at the age of 14. Even at such a young age Jonny knew that this was no passing whim. This was his destiny. His passion for the Native American Flute, and music in general, is shaping his musical career sending him to various places around the United States. To many, Jonny is considered to be an "Old Soul". His wisdom and outlook on life far exceeds his young age.Along with playing the Native American Flute, Jonny also plays many other instruments...all by ear. Though he cannot read music, he understands it and has a great sense of melody. When Jonny was around the age of 8 he took piano lessons but dropped out after only a few lessons. The timing wasn’t right. To date Jonny has written several piano pieces, two of which are featured on his newly released (August ’07) CD titled, "Transitions: Out of the Flames & Into the Wind". Such tracks include both "No Ordinary Love" and "Vanilla Skies". Along with these two pieces, including flute, are other songs that range widely in genre with influences from pop, blues, jazz, latin, and many others.Jonny’s music has captivated the hearts of many listeners and he hopes to reach the hearts and lives of more audiences on his journey with this amazing instrument. His music has been recognized by many radio stations including Two Worlds, a weekly program devoted to two hours of Native American music on WMNF 88.5 in Tampa, FL. Jonny was also featured in the Artist Spotlight on NativeRadio.com which is the worlds largest Native American Radio Station with streaming audio 24/7. Between traveling, performing, and daily life, Jonny still finds time to express himself with composing new music for his next album which he plans to release late 2008.Check out his website at: www.jonnylipford.com Press kit at: www.sonicbids.com/jonnylipfordThanks for stopping by & Happy Flutin!

Full Bio ... Part 1

Here's a little bit about how I came to find the flute:  I first heard a 'wooden' flute on a cartoon, it was being portrayed as an endblown style flute, what I was really hearing was a pan flute....
