Capt. John’s Music Bio
Captain John is a semi-retired Great Lakes 100 Ton Master Boat Captain and a singer / songwriter who can spin a yarn or ballad that will create an image of a shipwreck in your mind which will cause your emotions ebb and flow with the story. People say "you’ll definitely know him when you see him", as he stands 6-4” in his blue felt Capt’s. Brim that shades his steel blue eyes.
His booming baritone voice evokes shades of Johnny Cash and Stan Rogers with a hint of southern drawl. His acoustic Taylor 12 guitar finger style is intriguing and easy to listen to.
Capt. John will take you into his world of wind, waves and shipwrecks using the minor chords, especially A & E as he creates that ominous mystic sea sound to support deeply emotional subjects that evolved out of his life experiences which stand in stark contrast to today's shallow one trick pony lyrics. Captain John’s “Safe Harbor CD & original music is also featured on satellite radio.
What they’re saying about Capt. John
DOOR COUNTY, WI to South Florida – Capt. John’s unique blend of original recordings such as Edmund Fitzgerald along with his originals like “The Men of the Linda E” and “The Ship Beleavin” and “Sailing Into History” thrills his audiences from Ellison Bay, Wisconsin to Key Largo. Throw in a Sea Shanty, a few Jimmy Buffet tunes, some oldies by Elvis and Roy Orbison not to mention one of his humorous / educational stories drawn from his many years as a commercial fisherman will make for a nautical set that captivates everyone. And if the Capt. is in a playful mood you might hear a few political satire tunes as well.
Capt. John does much more than Nautical Music! His surprising broad repertoire allows him to perform a wonderful blend of and Throw in Neil Diamond - Crosby/Stills/Nash - Credence Clearwater Revival and the Kingston Trio! He will have you tapping your foot down memory lane!
Top everything off with a few time honored authentic COUNTRY MUSIC Greats such as Johnny Cash, Hank Williams & Willie Nelson and John Denver! Now, if that’s not enough wait till he brings out his 6 string Vintage Martin and picks out some good old fashioned BLUEGRASS TUNES! Add in his engaging brand of humor along with a few of his down home spun stories and you will have a clean entertaining performance that will be refreshing to young and old alike.
