John Thayer is a singer-songwriter from Portland, Oregon performing over the last four years as a solo artist developing and crafting his style.
John’s signature sound has captivated a dedicated audience worldwide. In October, 2013, John released Laurel Street on EON Records.
This Indie Pop production has its roots at the Oregon Coast where the artist has cultivated his musical sensibilities in the artist community of Cannon Beach where Thayer has a summer home. In April, 2015 John will release his new EP titled Take It Back.
As a follow-up to the critically acclaimed release, Laurel Street, this six song collection is an eclectic production using both live strings and brass horns to compliment John’s guitar, bass and drum ensemble. The Indie Pop style is reminiscent of Laurel Street, but the songs take on a deeper sophistication with lyrics that probe a bit deeper into the psyche.
Take It Back was co-produced by the Laurel Street team of Bobby Krier and Micah Tawlks in Nashville. The record was mixed by Greg Collins (No Doubt, Matchbox Twenty, US), in Los Angeles. John’s brother Tommy is the lead guitarist for the iconic rock band KISS.
A video produced for the song, “Don’t Wanna Lose You” can be viewed at www.johnthayermusic.com.
