Solo Musician For Hire in Dumont, NJ

PLEASE READ 😎 Hey! I’m John Thomas, a pop/rnb singer and musician. I’ve been singing my entire life and playing guitar for some years! I’ve performed on THE TODAY SHOW been in a NATIONAL COMMERCIAL and have had a major recording contract with SONY/EPIC RECORDS. “Drenched in funk and dripping with Justin Timberlake-esque falsetto” - Ones To Watch/Live Nation I’ve played hundreds of gigs from Weddings to private party’s and clubs/restaurants. I pride myself on playing modern hits such as (Bieber, Harry styles, Ed Sheeran) as well as classics (Beatles, stones, bill withers, Stevie Wonder) I can get you dancing or keep the vibe chill and romantic. Being an artist first, I always have a fresh take on songs you love (while still staying true to the melodies so you can sing along) I primarily play as a solo act (vocals and guitar) but can absolutely bring in additional band members such as bass, drums, keys or additional guitarist if the event calls for it! I have a minimum of $400 (after that pricing depends on duration/location/number of band members and setlist) A deposit will be required to save a date! Feel free to check out the few videos below or head over to ********** and/or ********* to see what I sound like and can do!

People are amazed to hear bassoon in this type of genre. Usually it is heard in chamber music groups or in the orchestra with limited opportunities to shine as solo instrument. The interaction of the entire group is telepathic. The joy of being able to relate creatively with such a talented and creative group of musicians. The audiences swing with the band and feel that they have experienced something very unique and rewarding.

I started playing violin when I was 8 years old growing up in Orlando, FL. I like to play everything from Frank Sinatra, and Disney Hits to recent songs by Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, and The Piano Guys. As a Puerto Rican native, the music of Bad Bunny and Marc Anthony comes naturally to me. I’m open to collaborating on playlists and always take special requests. I am excited to meet my new customers and can't wait to provide the musical soundtrack to your event. Other instruments and groups available upon request.
