Bio

Right On John is the stage name of Portland, OR based multi-instrumentalist/songwriter John McColley.

John started taking piano lessons at the age of ten and picked up the guitar as soon as he was big enough to hold one.

ROJ is a solo act, but make no mistake, this is no sensitive singer/songwriter stuff. John plays like his life depends on it.
