About Me


This profile was edited with Thomas' Myspace Editor V3.2
If By Chance is a collection of 10 songs recorded in 2004/2005 in Los Angeles with Producer Adam Hamilton. Adam co wrote on Angel Butterfly and Slow Breezes. John recorded the last song, May's Smile in Maryland right before he made the move to LA. The record features Spike Loudermilk on lead guitar. These days you can find John Neilson living it up in the quaint little town of Los Angeles,right in thick of it down on Melrose Blvd. If he is in town it is not uncommon to find him on stage @ The Hotel Cafe, House of Blues Sunset Strip, The Mint, Tangier, Key Club, 7969, King King, Ghengis Cohen, ect... You might have been lucky enough to catch John Neilson live on stage in Hollywood with Gilby Clark, Traci Guns, or in Sin City with Steven Adler singing Knocking on Heavens Door... If he is out of town, he might be kicking it @ The State Theatre in St Pete with Blackfoot, or playing Credence on stage with Sophie B Hawkins in Jacksonville, or on stage playing Bad Company with LA GUNS in Baltimore, or playing Sweet Home Alabama in ALABAMA, or busting off rounds from a SKS with Spike Loudermilk in High Point North Carolina, or he might be hanging @ The Continental in NYC with Trigger, drinking Jack with Charlie Overbey& The Dimestore Junkies in Bakersfield, or maybe he is playing a New Years eve show in Vegas,committing felonies on a tour bus in Utah with BUCK, cracking crabs with Jordan Shapiro on the Chesapeake, or maybe he is lost in Pittsburgh with a Cowboy, or he might be standing in the rain, locked out of the venue with Tolson in Bryn Mawr PA, or he could quite possibly be in Window Rock AZ on the reservation playing a show for the Zuni's, or he might be in Cinncinati playing a show at a laundry mat, or floating in private pools with Pockets. John has done shows with many amazing artists including Bob Schneider, Joshua Radin, Kevin Devine, Jason Isbell, John Doe of X,Rooney,Kinky,The Donna's,Jenny Owen Young, Kate Earl,The Vacation,Gram Bel Fisher, Beth Orton,Butch Walker, Under the Influence of Giants, Jessie Baylin, Ronnie Day, Matthew Sweet & Sussana Hoffs, The Minor Canon, and many many more.... None the less you can be sure of one thing... he will have his guitar with him, and he will be playing.
