John Vesley is a one-man show hailing from Menlo Park, CA. Born into a family of musicians - his father has been a professional jazz musician for over 20 years. John started getting into music around age 12. He was a member of numerous Bay area bands ranging in style from ska, hardcore rock and pop, but it wasn’t until he picked up an acoustic guitar that he finally found his true calling.
Rolling Stone featured Secondhand Serenade in the magazine’s new artist “On The Edge” and said: "equipped with an acoustic guitar silken tenor pipes, a shitload of tattoos and a whole lotta sadness." Secondhand Serenade also scored #3 in the magazine’s year-end reader’s poll for “Best MySpace Artist.”
