Wedding Singer
John has been singing since 1995 when his music teacher encouraged him to audition for the school musical 'West Side Story'. Since then John has gone from strength to strength and has developed into a; versitile, dynamic, vocal entertainer who can sing almost any genre of music.
In 2000 John performed in Godspell at Blackpool Globe Theatre infront of audiences of up to 2000 people which cemented his addiction to performing. Since graduating from Bretton Hall (Leeds University) in 2001 John has worked for major theatre companies such as Qdos Entertainment and Openwide international working at Bradford Alhambra, a tour of South Wales and Somerset and as Lead Vocalist on board a cruise ship sailing in the Med, Canaries and Caribbean.
When John returned from the Cruise Ship he set up as a freelance entertainer and over the past few years has developed into an all round entertainer. After working his way up from performing in pubs and clubs John has now built an impressive client base and CV including; Swizzels Matlow, Snap on Tools, Norbert Dentresangle, Tetley/Carlsberg, SAS and Cream Awards.
Now John works most of the time as a Wedding Singer and DJ covering the North of England
Having such a diverse background in music has helped John to become incredibly versitile as a performer and has helped him to build a fabulous reputation. Below are a few of the genres you can expect to hear John sing during an evening of entertainment.
