Multi-instrumentaliste Country US né en 1958 ŕ Phoenix (Arizona).
Since his
appearance on the alt-country scene with the Grievous Angels in the mid-'90s, Jon
Rauhouse has become Bloodshot Records' secret weapon multi-instrumentalist,
appearing on more than a dozen of their releases, as well as guesting on albums
for other labels. Growing up in Arizona, Rauhouse began playing banjo on a dare
from a high school classmate, the two of them ending up in a bluegrass band
called Southwind. Rauhouse played in Southwind for seven years, switching to
pedal steel guitar after two years on banjo. After Southwind, Rauhouse spent
nearly a decade as a sideman in the Phoenix area, playing with every band he
could. He ended up in the Grievous Angels, who got a deal with Bloodshot and
released two albums and an EP. When the Grievous Angels reached the end of the
road, Rauhouse had a short-lived project called Sleepwalker with Jamal Ruhe,
then found steady work recording and touring with Sally Timms, Kelly Hogan, and Neko
Case. While on tour with Neko Case, Rauhouse ran into Tommy Connell, a former
member of Southwind. When the time came for Rauhouse to record a solo album, he
enlisted his old friend Connell, as well as players from the Bloodshot stable,
to record Jon Rauhouse's Steel Guitar Air Show, a fun collection of (mostly)
instrumentals in the spirit of Speedy West
& Jimmy Bryant, covering a range of
styles from Western swing to Hawaiian that was released in 2002. Rauhouse assembled
essentially the same crew for the follow-up, Steel Guitar Rodeo, in 2004.
Hawaiian Guitar Expedition arrived in 2005, followed by Steel Guitar Heart
Attack in 2007.
