   About John McKnight
I took an interest in drumming at a young age, thanx to my Father who is also a drummer and huge influence. Taking lessons and playing all through school was a way of life. At 15 I began playing in clubs with some local bands, and had my first recording session at 16. After high school I teamed up with a friend from school and some guys I knew from some other bands and we hit the road. Mainly hitting the top 40 dance rooms in the northeast. Many yrs. and bands later I moved to Atlanta to give it a go. Since moving here in 98' I've been on 40 cd's. Always giving my best for the song, not for me. I believe in groove, soul and simplicity, but it's nice to throw something tasty in every once in a while. I've been very lucky to have played with some of my heroes and mentors, and make some beautiful friends along the way. I'm not going to list all these people and name drop, the pictures and memories are locked away for me. One thing I know is I will make music until the day I die. It's the only thing that cleanses the soul.

However, one lead and one rhythm is acceptable), keyboard/piano, bass, and drums. Lead vocal, followed by backing vocals, in that order, is a plus as it relates to other members of the group. Average age of the band cannot exceed 28 years of age.

** Musicianship throughout the entire band must be very strong.
*** Group cannot currently be under any contract of any type that is related to the music industry.

* Group must have an outstanding lead vocalist.
** Musicianship throughout the entire band must be very strong.
*** Group cannot currently be under any contract of any type that is related to the music industry.

XXX - If you meet the minimum qualifications as described above. Email a link for your MySpace Page and if applicable, a link for your website to: recordingartistsearch@gmail.com

Only send one email with your links. Due to the volume of responses normally received for these types of opportunities. After review of your material, you will only be contacted if there is an interest in attending one of your shows by a label representative. As such please to not send any follow up emails regarding selections. If you were not contacted back, there was not an interest.

Thank You.
