Western Montana, John moved to Colorado at the age of 18 where he began performing live in clubs and coffee houses as a solo acoustic act. He also studied music at Fort Lewis College in Durango, earning a BA degree in music. Though his talents are varied, John's first love is the art of songwriting.

Among John's many original songs is "Rock and Roll Highway" which reached the number one spot nationally on the independent charts. John's performances are always well received as he is the most in-demand performer in the Rim Country, being voted "Best Entertainer" by the locals for 14 consecutive years! John has that special ability to create and maintain a mutual sense of enjoyment between audience and performer.
