With influences ranging from Phish to Radiohead and Nat King Cole, John Paris is creating music that sits a bit outside the box and draws inspiration from a host of genres, not limited to folk, rock, jazz, blues, classical, surf, and psychedelic music.
Following years of classical training at a young age, John Paris would take to drums in middle school and later to guitar, ultimately forming bands at Brown University (The Spicy Withs) whilst diving head-first into jazz and composition studies. Following school, he would spend time recording and performing in New York City, Nashville, and Berlin, and credits much of his “folk” sound from playing within Berlin’s international street music scene.
Now in Charleston, South Carolina, John Paris is building a fan base playing local bars, breweries, and venues, on top of regular tours to Savannah, Columbia, Charlotte, Asheville, and Raleigh.
