JOHN LAMBERT is a long-time local Wisconsin Fox Valley musician, vocalist and songwriter.
He is currently doing solo performances of his original music and/or covers.

"Solo musical performer: I am a solo performer who does both original and/or covers. My covers show is a fun array of '60s, '70s and '80s pop and rock and my original material is also a blend of these classic music forms. My interpretation of these classics is quite unique and modern. I am flexible and am available to play anytime even on a week-night or earlier in the day and will play any percent mix of cover and original material desired. I am an acoustic guitarist and vocalist.

Duo: featuring acoustic guitar and bass are also available for more intimate events as well! Experience my solo act with a little bit of frill as I join forces with Mike Schultz a talented area musician for these special performances.

I've also done house act runs in 2010 at Aloft Hotel in Green Bay for 4 months, Plum Hill in Kaukauna and last summer (2012) I was a weekly mainstay at Saint James Cocktail Lounge in Appleton Wisconsin. For a year, I held monthly spots at De Pere's The Vault and now defunct Bistro on Broadway (2010-2011) as well as regular appearances at Black Forest Green Bay, Callahan's Madison, Copperrock Appleton, The Gooseblind Green Lake, The Shipyard Mosinee and even did a summer at Joannes Stadium at The Green Bay Bullfrog's baseball team games to name a few! I have many other return engagements and yearly events I return to as well.

I've played in Madison, Middleton, Appleton, Neenah, Menasha, Fremont, Fon du Lac, Mayville, Eden, Green Lake, Fox Lake, Oshkosh, Kaukauna, Green Bay, De Pere, Shawano, Manitowoc, Two Rivers, Kewaunee, Algoma, Sister Bay, Baileys Harbor, Sturgeon Bay, Marinette, Stevens Point, Marion, Nekoosa, Mosinee, Sherwood, Stockbridge, Chilton, New Holstein and Brillion.
