Bio

Just out of high school, John realized that writing songs and playing the guitar was a great way to meet chicks. Besides, Woody Guthrie was pretty impressive in an unwashed kind of way. After gigging around for a couple of years, his musical path took a different direction: In radio. But even after a whole bunch of years in the cesspool of broadcasting, the passion for writing songs and playing the guitar, like a persistant rash, never completely goes away.

John is a Fort Lauderdal-Florida native currently living in Manhattan, but he's spent time in Texas, Cali, Detroit and a couple of nights in a motel room in Oxnard.

Influences (not necessilarly in any order) : Lightning Hopkins, Bruce Cockburn, T Bone Burnette, Charlie Patton, Maybelle Carter, Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zandt, Blind Willie Johnson, Joni Mitchell, Rasan Roland Kirk, Steve Jobs.
