John has played guitar since high school. As the band formed, Bob and Jim joined as guitarists, so John picked up his bass to round out the band.  His influences are everything from 50’s to present-day music.  Though The Beatles, Stones, U2, CCR, are favorites, any music that brings a smile to us all, a foot tapping and dancing, and especially singing along, pretty much defines his likes.  John is married to Jackie “Dovey”, our vocalists, and that story is in her bio.  Music is the most universal langue there is - and John reminds us that, before there was language, the ancients would chant/sing - as it’s that much part of who we all are.
