“ I Drum, therefore, I am.
I play the drums because I never understand the world or my place in it more clearly, than when I have Drumsticks in my hand”.
Growing up as a young drummer at the age of 7, John was captivated by listening to the local Parish Music Ministry symphony orchestra perform, and resolved that one day he would be able to create that same experience for an audience.
His very first stint on stage was a solo performance at the age of 11, in front of the prestigious Indian Air Force gathering, which got him immense exposure to Events for the Forces, to showcase and hone his talent.
Many years of arduous practice and devoted listening brought John to the doors of life, where he not only earned his degrees, but forged meaningful relationships with other musicians who had the same passion as him, forming Rock Bands as never heard before.
Hailing from a Military background, John has travelled across all Cultures in India, and has learnt and played across genres of Music, ranging from the Christian Archdiocese of North India, to the Grand temples in the South of India, from the tribal art forms in the North East and into the Bollywood style in the Famous channels and TV shows of the metropolitans.
Passing out from higher secondary, John was seen on-stage at all major events & later formed his very own band named FreeFall in New Delhi, which honed in him the true musician and opened his gates to a variety of Performances featuring the Band in all Major print media, in the town. Among his personal favorite bands are Guns N Roses, Metallica, Bon Jovi, Creed, Megadeth & Dream Theater, the influences of which can be felt in his very own playing style as well.
One of John’s biggest achievement lies when he was selected as a Solo drummer in a Gigantic 155 member choir for the Reverent Pope John Paul II’s visit to India in the year 1999.
Shifting bases to the Middle East a decade ago, John is now a Corporate L&D specialist. It gives John great joy to not only do the good work of sharing music with audiences, but with preparing tomorrow’s musicians to share it to the best of their abilities, too.
He indeed loves to belt out Heavy and Hard hitting beats with Progressive accents and playing off-timings while on his drums.
John believes that engaging with others in music is one of the most profound ways to connect with another human being – and nothing else gives him greater satisfaction and fulfillment.
