Experience

History
In early 1997 John opened a recording and mastering studio in-house and worked on and produced with a partner ,literally hundreds of titles, gaining his skill as an editor and as a programmer. His most recent release is an example of that whole instrumentation and vocals are performed by him and drum machines and Ableton-based automation.
The recording studio was eventually closed due to a conflict of interest. John and his team had ventured into CD and DVD manufacturing in the height of it with three ... offices, 3 to 4 offices in the US and Canada, and getting the esteemed position of number 16 and profit magazines 100 fastest growing companies. The business at the time was getting most of it's business from Studios and Mastering facility so they didn’t want to compete in anyway.
In this side of the business, dealing with record labels, performers, artists of every calibre and level, only added to his extensive touring and performing experience and studio engineering and producing experience.
John comes with a multi level facetted set of strengths. John also performs cover sets. Doing his interpretation of songs by Sade, Seal , Bowie , Sound garden and the Beatles, to name a few

To hear his creativity, listen to the 2023 release, BALL. "THIS IS SOMETHING ELSE" on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/artist/2WenPZxsRl18YmUcqVfmRJ?si=uv3L1Z0nQYSEgZGC_1HG_Q
He plays all the instruments on the release. He sings, plays and programs every instrument on all 16 tracks.
When you work with John in any capacity with respect to performing or the music industry he comes multi level ready. Ready to take on any musical task and deal with any situation. Not to mention, he is fearless in his approach. His look alone with the white beard, black Faux hawk and the tattoos, setting himself apart from anyone. He’s a performer at heart and breathes creatively. He can look like he is going to church, in a Business meeting or as punk as it gets within minutes.
