Picking the guitar was an easy and natural selection for John, At age 12 he started on a cheap plastic guitar and his journey commenced.
The following year his first electric guitar started an obsession that still continues to this day.

Early on, the Beatles and Rolling Stones were his source of inspiration, Then followed by Cream, Hendrix, Mountain, Led Zeppelin etc.
He also had an Acoustic/ Neil Young/Jim Croce awakening in the late 1970’s.

John has played in various groups in the New York/New Jersey area, And was influenced by many guitarist’s and musical forms along the way. Before relocating to Central PA. John played the New York City’s Club scene, playing Reggae ,Ska and Punk cover and original songs.


Seeking his own expression,he has now settled on classic rock and blues as his main groove. Citing masters like B.B. King, Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughan, John continues his musical journey, And is always learning something “new” to improve and grow and feed his mind and soul on his journey.
