Grateful to be alive, God gave me more than a second chance; he gave me many chances. I don't take this round for granted by any means. Hear me out, I can be very interesting with this perspective.
A veteran of the business for over 30 years, John toured in various bands for almost a decade before joining CMC International’s, “Talon” in 1988 as lead vocalist/guitarist. John through the years has performed in venues all over the continent as an opener for industry powerhouses such as Motley Crue, Night Ranger, Eddie Money, The Goo Goo Dolls, & The Black Crowes. Exploring his horizons as a writer, John had a lifelong infatuation with live theatre (& horses) which led to writing several working scripts for shows such as “Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament," as well as performing in the show as an equestrian actor & stunt performer. Covering the music publishing side of things, John has also represented Grammy award winning songwriters for song placements on various projects for such artists as John Michael Montgomery, All for One, Faith Hill, Travis Tritt, Earth Wind and Fire, Reverend Run, & Anita Baker, to name a few.
After settling down with his wife of 10 years, Sara Louise; & daughters McCartney Anne & Kesha Nichole, John has spent that time concentrating on his writing, a passion since childhood. Passion Roxx, his latest project, was thrown into the forefront as John noticed the industry changing dramatically & the PC generation dominating. "Somebody has to do it! Everybody lighten up! So here ya go! Rock the future!”
