Raised by parents who moved around the country, Leo Kottke was first taught to play classical violin, and was introduced to a number of musical influences in his youth. He began playing guitar when he was 11, and was drawn to the country-blues found in Mississippi. After time in the Navy, aboard a diesel submarine, in 1964, Leo settled for a time in the Twin Cities, playing guitar at a popular coffee house. He was signed to John Fahey's Takoma label and released his second album, 6- and 12- String Guitar, which became known as "the Armadillo record" due to artist Annie Elliot's artwork on the cover.
