Message from John
Music is my first tongue - it is the language that I, at once, knew coming into this world.
When I was very young, I remember hearing popular and classical music and distinctly feeling drawn – by these sounds – to another time and place; this was a calling to transcend this world. I never forgot that and work always to recreate that state of being. Whenever I play music – solo, or with friends, I am touched by the universality and purity of the medium. I can speak to anyone – and they to me.
Our personalities, beliefs, age, color, religion, gender all melt away – there is instead a sense of mutuality and connectedness. Music, like love, is limitless and enables us to see what normally goes unseen.
I welcome you to my music site and would love to hear from you about the songs, performances, your music, and any ideas you have about making the world slightly better for having made some music while we were here.
Peace,
