| Bio:
John signed
as a CE Winds Featured Artist in July 2008, after CE Winds launched their new
line of Pro Series saxophones. John visited us to demo the horns and for
a recording session for our "Hear It Being Played" videos, where he quickly
realized there was something very special about these instruments. "I though
before playing them I would have a good backup horn for my Selmer Mark VI Alto
and Tenor, but after playing these powerful horns, I knew they were meant to be
no ones backup horn!"
Originally
from Annapolis, Maryland, John moved to South Florida in 1989 and began developing his
diverse musical abilities through many fantastic opportunities. He has
performed and recorded with great artists from every musical genre, from Jazz
to Rock, Latin to Reggae. John is often referred to as one of South Florida's
most underrated sax players, and his extensive resume includes performances
with multi-platinum selling artists such as Gloria Estefan, Julio Iglesias,
Engelbert Humperdinck, KC and The Sunshine Band, David Lee Roth, and Raul
DiBlasio.
John was
most recently on tour with Gloria Estefan, which included a stop at the 2008
Latin Grammy Awards for a live performance, which was also broadcasted live on
Univision.
Throughout South
Florida,
John regularly performs at the top local venues, such as Jazziz Club and
Bistro, the VanDyke Jazz Club, Ohara's and others, as well as at the most
prestigious Luxury hotels, such as The Breakers, The Ritz-Carlton, The Four
Seasons, The Mandarin Oriental, and the Boca Raton Resort and Club.
