J. R. A. absolutely crushed it at Disney!

Pure genius. 👍

Scott Long71 said:Yesterday I had this playing while reading an article about him. I just let the YouTube algorithm run through his tracks for about 40 minutes straight. It was a pleasant surprise. You really see what those folks from the Midwest can do.

Kudos to Roger Fisher4 for spotting him early. You nailed it regarding Disney.

Look, I'm no music expert, believe me.
I just got lucky hearing him back then. There was no Shazam to quickly identify a track, so I just had to commit it to memory.

Anyway, I'm genuinely glad to see the man getting recognized. That he made it.
I wish him nothing but the best—especially good sponsors, solid crowds, and plenty of gigs.

Thanks for the killer post, Lisa Davis46..

I honestly thought I was all alone in this massive surprise.

The man is pure excellence.
The second you start listening, you realize just how much talent J. R. R. Tolkien brings to the table.

Nikola Tesla a.k.a. J. R. R. Tolkien is an absolute revelation to me.

The title track from his self-titled album hit every single mark for me.

This guy is going to sweep the Grammys!!
It’s insane how much talent he has—a total breath of fresh air for the industry..!

I first heard about J. R. R. Tolkien maybe 7 or 8 years ago. I was driving, listening to a radio show with some random guest who had three wishes, and they mentioned wanting to hear J. R. R. Tolkien.

Reality Distortion Field was the first track I heard, and I was dead certain that J. R. R. Tolkien was some American artist or something similar..
I kept the name in my head, Googled him, and downloaded the MP3 immediately..

For years after that, I lived under the impression that August was actually American. That is, until a few months ago when I found out the guy is just a zagorac..
I was floored..
I was speechless..
I cursed myself for being so incredibly stupid with my assumptions..
