As the anchor of Nashville’s Kings of Leon – a modernist mélange of American rock ‘n’ roll which quotes garage, blues, punk, country, and Southern rock – Jared Followill piles passages in service of the almighty song with pocket motifs and an occasional melodic statement just to remind you that there’s more to life than pickin’ roots!

Jared’s main weaponry of choice is the Gibson Thunderbird IV, and we’ve spotted him with a Epiphone version as well, along with a standard Gibson SG, and old reliables Fender Jazz and Precision basses.
