Description

Today we sit down with Lou Toomey, one of the most successful and enduring road guitarists in Country Music.

In this conversation, Lou walks us through his unbelievable first pro gig as Keith Whitley’s lead guitarist during the height of Whitley’s all-too-brief but iconic career. From there, we follow his journey through the ’90s as he hit the road with Faith Hill, and into his remarkable three-decade run with Brooks & Dunn, all legendary Country touring acts.

We dig into how he landed each of those gigs, the gear that shaped his tones across the years, and the mindset and work ethic that have kept him at the top of his game for nearly 50 years.
