Lee John Blackmore is a British musician and guitarist who’s been grinding since the early 2000s. Long before YouTube was a career path, he was writing, recording, and playing anywhere with a stage and a working power socket.

​

He’s built a YouTube channel with over 500,000 subscribers and 75 million views by doing what he’s always done: no gimmicks, just solid playing and straight answers. His sound is shaped by the artists he grew up with, but he’s spent years sharpening it into something that’s very much his own.

​

His original music has been licensed for TV around the world, and when he’s not making music he keeps his creative streak moving through painting and photography. Now based in southwest France, he splits his time between raising his family, renovating a home, and escaping to the beach whenever he gets the chance.
