Details:
John Hughes is a singer/songwriter from Rothesay, New Brunswick.

A self taught drummer, John was playing in bands, performing in bars
and school dances by the time he was fifteen. While attending high
school, John's band, "Trix", recorded a 45 single in Halifax, which received
airplay from local radio stations. Excited by the success of their
first single, Trix moved to Toronto after all the members graduated from
high school. Writing and performing for three years, John eventually
grew tired of the music business and moved back home to New Brunswick.

In the mid 80's, while attending university, John began to learn
guitar. He re-strung an acoustic guitar upside down to suit his left
handedness. Before long, he was playing guitar, harmonica, singing,
and fronting the Neil Young tribute band "Broken Arrow". He performed
in Rome, Italy at a 60th Birthday Celebration which was organized in
Neil's honor.

Although Broken Arrow had much success, John figured his own material
would never be taken seriously as long as he was fronting a tribute
band - Broken Arrow ended to make way for John's own material.

In the summer of 2006, Neil Young called out publicly looking for
protest songs against the Bush Administration and the War in Iraq. The
approved songs would be posted on Neil's official website. John wrote
and recorded the single "Bring 'em On", which remained #1 on Neil
Young's list of protest songs for the better part of a year (along
side such names as Pearl Jam, Kris Kristofferson, Steve Earle and Pink
among others). John was invited to perform in Hollywood with some of
the other performers from Neil's list.

John was then introduced to Joe Hardy, a veteran record
producer/engineer best known for his work with ZZtop, .38 Special,
Steve Earle and Georgia's Satellites. Joe produced John's debut album
entitled "TIME". Recorded in Nashville in August and September 2007,
the album is an expression of nearly thirty years of writing and
performing - a look at an artist rich in experience, rebellious spirit,
interesting tales and a keen passion for song writing. "Time" will be
released in December 2007.
