Johnny "V" has played guitar with many Blues greats like Chicago guitarist Luther Tucker, Sunnyland Slim, Rock& Roll Legend Chuck Berry, Steve "Guitar" Miller, Greg Allman , George Thorogood, Charlie Daniels , Commander Cody & the Lost Planet Airmen and Elvin Bishop to name a few.

Johnny was recruited into Elvin Bishop's band that led to 6 albums, Gold Records, endless touring and the #3 song in the nation by 1974 "Fooled Around and Fell in Love."

Elvin and Johnny's dual lead and slide parts set a style that was part of the Southern Rock Sound and continues to live on today.

Johnny continues to wow folks with his sizzling bluesy slide guitar as a long time member of harmonica great Norton Buffalo (Steve Miller Band) So keep an eye and ear out for Johnny as he's playin', producing and recording with some of the best the music world has to offer.

Johnny V is a very tasteful guitar player and all around great guy. He’s been out there “in the trenches” playing great blues a looooong time and making a lot of people happy!”
– Charlie Musselwhite

"Johnny Vernazza did such a great job backing Ian Siegal I thought he was a long time member of the band; the rhythem section he put together was unreal! ...Johnny "V" is someone any artist would want on their side!"
- Otis Taylor
