Haven’t watched a single Squidbillies since he left, and I won’t.
-
It stops being a joke when he starts playing the guitar. A genius and one of the coolest guys I ever worked with.
-
A guitar legend who absolutely does not have the recognition he deserves. But he's happily married and seems to be content in life and tbh who really can ask for more.
-
Do not touch the trim
-
There's a pre-natal unit in Paraguay that uses his music to induce labor. Legend.
-
He played at a venue I worked the door at in the early 00s. Called me big hoss. Will always remember that.
-
I had the honor of opening up for Unknown Hinson in 2009. That was a great time!
-
Im 55 ...how did i make it this far with out knowing about this Legend! I feel cheated!
-
To be fair CDs didn't last and we still have vinyl
-
This dude has an outstanding schtick. The Adult Swim issue, the Dolly issue. All of it. Schtick. Outstanding. I'd pay a $5 cover to see him in any bar, anytime.
-
He was so good live. He’s an amazing guitar player. Played all along the watch tower crazy good
-
I loved this guy. Sold more records than Elvis and The Beatles. Musical genius and it’s just a damn shame to find out that he’s a… vampire. I just can’t support vampires.
-
His real name is Stewart Baker a music teacher at braverd University in north carolina. Hes from Ashville Nc. I REAL GUITAR GOD and a really nice guy.
-
He's like the very most comedic and extreme version of Johnny Paychek, Johnny Cash, Elvis, Glen Campbell, Jerry Lee Lewis and a Vampire all in one. Legend. ❤
-
Joaquin Phoenix will play him one day
-
Unknown and his band played my wedding reception.
-
I seen him in Lexington. He's freakin amazing. And his tone is crazy
-
You forgot to mention arguably the most bizarre fact about Unknown Hinson: he's one of Billy Bob Thornton's dejected-looking backing band members in that one infamous interview where he goes off the rails on that radio DJ.
-
Underrated on guitar as well this man is just a natural. AND someone for the love of god get this man some meat. :face-blue-smiling: Baker doesn't just play guitar it's just part of who he is.

Unknown played Austin several times back in the day. He was always good to the fans. Played a great show and signed autographs for everyone that wanted one. No one ever went away disappointed. Great guy.
