   About Brennon John
After completing his childhood quite successfully in the once-booming Pennsylvania Railroad hub, Altoona, our hero (like most young people of an adult status yet malleable mentality) was corralled into an institution of higher learning where he spent the better part of six years. While operating under the guise of a student of architecture, Brennon cultivated his love of traditional folk, blues and bluegrass, producing a vast body of musical work while becoming acquainted with a variety of instruments. After completing the academic chapter of his life, Brennon John, like so many who came before, packed his bags and headed for the Nashville skyline. He and his motley crew of wayward gypsy souls set up camp, surrounding themselves with kindred spirits of similar mind from all walks of life and many diverse locales... During his stay in Music city, Brennon released one album which is gaining both popularity and notoriety, VARIATIONS: I. After spending a year collaborating with some of the greatest talent music has to offer, Brennon John decided to walk away from the bright lights of Nashville to operate his music career from his home in the Pennsylvania mountains.

Ahh, I forgot about the old English class performance, lol. I heard your cd awhile back, my soon to be ex husbands grandmother lives next to your parents I believe, Betty Shock. I was very impressed. At least you made an attempt to get out, I was always too chicken shit. lol. Some people are just not meant for Altoona, and I think you're one of them. I'm hoping to be making my way farther north to Conneticut soon, my sister lives up there and with all the things that have occured in the last year, I need a change. Thanks for the compliment about my little girl, she's my world. Don't let the blogs fool ya, her mom is a basket case these days. lol. But thank you.

I was walking through a FoodLion
parking lot, last night, heard an
old guitar coming from the club
next door and thought of you. Keep
the peace and your oil changed
every 3,000 miles! Have a lovely
weekend.

I got your package. As always your guitar playing is excellent and the harmonica was a nice surprise. All I can say is that you got the sound. Everybody tries to get it but only a few ever do. You're one of them.
Take care, Josh

Brennon, 'ppreciate the add. On my page, there is no TOP anything. I have my friends lined up in alphabetical order, so you are sandwiched between David Bowie and Leonard Cohen.
Not bad company,eh?!
