John Vere Homepage

Welcome to my site. Here you will find links to some of my musical endeavors. Both as a Musician and Audio Technician. 

 As a Musician I had performed as a Solo, Duo and sometimes sit in with local bands. My main instrument is Guitar and I also play Bass, Keyboards and very basic Drums.  I not only play cover songs in many styles, I am also a singer songwriter with over 40 original songs recorded. A few have been published -see below. 

As a sound tech I have a long history in recording music both live and in the studio. I also served as the communities "Sound Guy" for over 30 years.  

Cactus Music was a music store I ran in the 90's with Retail, Guitar repairs, Lessons, Recording then out and about doing live sound for all the local concerts and events. I also continued to play gigs which for me has been non stop since about 1980 up until last year. 

I am now retired from the "Music Business" and it is purely a hobby now. If I perform it will be as a singer songwriter, acoustic guitar and vocals. My son Jesse will sometimes join me on Mandolin. I also have an old time set list that I play at a local Care Home.
