Bio

Southwest Louisiana native John Guidroz's lifelong love of music is just as strong as his appreciation for the unique culture he grew up with. He was raised by a musical family, who noticed early on his ability to pick out harmonies and sing along with popular songs of the day. This ability continued to grow through several years of singing in local school choirs.
Guidroz picked up his first guitar at 16, and later fronted a couple of local bands. But it wasn't until his early 20s that he decided to step out on his own and give solo acoustic performances. Over the next several years, he introduced local audiences to his broad range of influences, including Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, The Smiths, Beck, Bob Dylan, Bill Withers and A Perfect Circle. Those influences and performances would push him to write his own material.
After several months of writing and recording, Guidroz released, "Yesterday's News," his first full-length album, in September. The eight songs showcase his unique and powerful vocal stylings, a keen sense of melody and clever lyrics.
