John Stickney (guitar/vocals) has been playing in bands for over 15 years, starting with the quintessential high school garage band in his teens. John was heavily influenced in those years by AC/DC, which was handy since he only knew 3 chords. After going to college (where he mostly learned new chords), his musical repertoire expanded and in his last band performed music heavily influenced by acoustic/rock groups such as Barenaked Ladies, Big Head Todd and the Monsters, and Freddy Jones Band. After moving to Cincinnati in 2000, John took a 5 year hiatus from music to get his career in order and start a family. Now that those things are done, he’s ready to quit his day job, leave his family, and rock out.
