Andy Johns, younger brother of famous Olympic Studios engineer Glyn Johns, father of HURT drummer Evan Johns and uncle of Kings of Leon and Ryan Adams producer Ethan Johns (son of Glyn Johns) is a prolific engineer and producer. Before his nineteenth birthday, Andy Johns was working as Eddie Kramer's second engineer on classic recordings by Jimi Hendrix and many others. In a career spanning more than thirty years, he's engineered or produced records by artists ranging from Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones to Van Halen and Rod Stewart, whose sales total in excess of 160 millions copies. His main references are the legendary Led Zeppelin's IV and the Rolling Stones' Exile on Main Street.
The classic Andy Johns sound is perhaps found on Free's album Highway, which he engineered and produced. Johns attended The King's School, Gloucester, England in the mid to late 1960s.
