Jonny Lang started playing the guitar at the age of twelve after his father took him to see the Bad Medicine Blues Band, one of the few blues bands in Fargo. Jonny Lang soon started taking guitar lessons from Ted Larsen, the Bad Medicine Blues Band's guitar player. Several months after Jonny Lang started guitar lessons, he joined the Bad Medicine Blues Band, which was then renamed Kid Jonny Lang and the Big Bang.
Kid Jonny Lang and the Big Bang moved to Minneapolis and independently released the album Smokin'. Jonny Lang was signed to A&M Records in 1996. Jonny Lang released the critically acclaimed multi-platinum Lie to Me on January 28, 1997. The next album, Wander This World, was released on October 20, 1998 and earned a Grammy nomination. This was followed by the more soulful Long Time Coming on October 14, 2003. Jonny Lang also made a cover of Edgar Winter's "Dying to Live." Jonny Lang's newest album, the gospel-influenced Turn Around, was released in 2006, and most recently won Lang his first Grammy Award.
