John has played in bands since back in the 1960's. By the 70's he found himself playing acoustic guitar and a Banjo. When Johns family moved to the interior he started playing in bands again. Typical bands playing covers but also playing bass in the Fly By Night Bluegrass band. Around this time he became a solo act. To this day John still sits in with a few bands and does his solo gig at dances and fall fair type shows.
Johns latest act is returning to his roots from those acoustic day's of the late 60's and 70's. Country rock, Folk Rock, Blues and bit of Bluegrass. John has a whole set of originals but he likes to mix in those old songs everybody will remember, but you don't often hear anymore. For this John plays 6 and a 12 string guitars.
Sometimes Johns son Jesse will join him on Mandolin or lead guitar.
