From the farmlands outside of Waco, Johnnie High began his music career as a teenager hosting his own radio program. In those early days of strumming his guitar and recording many popular songs of the 40s and 50s, his love for music, and support for Texas artists began to grow. When he made his way to the Dallas/Fort Worth area, Johnnie was producing recordings and music shows all over town, beginning with the Grapevine Opry! Before his death, for over four decades, the Johnnie High Country Music Revue was the longest running, most successful weekly music show in the entire Southwest! Most every program through those many years has included all kinds of Gospel Music – and usually featured his own “regular” Gospel Quartet utilizing lots of great Texas talent!
