John is a small town Father, Veteran, and Gypsy brought up on gospel and country music. He was born in the small town of Minden, Louisiana, and grew up in Cotton Valley, raised on good manners, good food, and good music.
He attended culinary school and worked in the food industry, which led him to create his own BBQ sauce, Renegade BBQ, and opening his own bakery.
After losing the bakery in hurricane Katrina, John spent 8 years in the Air Force, where he did 5 overseas deployments. As a result, he has PTSD, which he draws inspiration from in his original music. He hopes to use his platform to raise awareness for PTSD and help others who suffer from it.
He pours out music from his soul in hopes it connects with the people who need it. Some folks call his music Country, some call it Outlaw Country, and some call it Southern Rock... He calls it real, and that’s the kind of music he wants to make!
