   About John Lefler
Hi, I am John. I'm a musician from Texas, specifically Dallas these magical days. I write songs, try to sing them, and play them for people as often as I can, usually without them getting mad. I play guitar and keys in another band as well, Dashboard Confessional. We are friends, we travel, and play songs alot. When we are not together, I record records of my own. The latest, "Better By Design," was released by me in June '09, I believe. People have referred to it as, "powerpop,' which is fine with me. I love bands like Jellyfish, XTC, Crowded House, and, of course, The Beatles. I think "Ram" is my favourite Paul McCartney record - which is how I wish I would sound (and sing). My record is for sale on cdbaby.com, I-Tunes, and on the powerpop site, notlame.com (http://www.notlame.com/JOHN_LEFLER/Page_1/CDLEFLER1.html). Check it out if you got a spare moment. There are some pretty good songs on it. I wrote this bio myself. >

Hey Johnny!
Great show last night at the troubadour. Thanks for taking the time to chat with all of us. We really appreciate it. It made our night. Also, youre a very talented musician. Keep doing your thing. I've gotten a handful of people into dashboard's music in the past few years. I'll start putting in a good word to all of my friends about your music too because it really is good stuff. You're a really genuinely nice guy, and you truly deserve it. Hope to chat with you soon again.

Thanks again,
Juan Olea (Jose's cousin haha)
