Welcome to the first post on this new blog. I've got to leave for a gig shortly, so here's some groovy videos until I get home.

About Me
- Screamin' John
- Louisville, KY, United States
- The nickname "Screamin' John" was bestowed upon me at the age of 17, by some older musicians that used to sneak me into bars so I could pay my dues at an early age. I played in a lot of bands after that, most notably, the Predators. At the age of 26, my band, Edenstreet, signed a recording contract with a major label just a year before a corporate takeover by a liquor company made me a tax write-off. After taking a sales position in a music store and a gig in a bluegrass band, the Hog Operation, I decided it was time to resume my education. I've since left the music store (though no one seems to believe me) and reformed the Predators. I'm also playing with country singer Bryan Fox, and I plan to debut the Screamin' John Quartet sometime in the spring of 2010. I'm gigging a lot, and I plan to return to teaching sometime in early 2010. I'm finishing my Masters from Bellarmine University any day now.
