John is a worship leader from Scotland and has been a musician for most of his working life. The score so far is one wife, three kids, seven grandchildren and more guitars than he can remember.
Band/artist history
John started as a folk singer gigging in Scottish pubs but a year or so after getting converted the Lord closed that door. His guitar repair business took off and he now teaches music for a living. His first album 'Diamonds' was released by the Church of Scotland education dept in the late 70's. Although the C of Sc is best described as a broad church, John is a charismatic fundementalist. Lots of fun and slightly mental.
