Prentiz and N.S.P. (New Style Players) are both band projects I'm involved with consisting of my students, friends, and myself. I perform the songs my with my co-writers and students, at special concerts. I'll be sure to post our next concert if your in the Chicago area, and we're playing a public show. I'm saddened that my singer passed away last year. He can be seen in the Santana videos below singing and playing the congas. Rest in Peace, Nelson. Above are songs I've written, arranged, and performed. I play all the instruments in the songs. Except, the drums. Thanx Tommy Centano. I wrote "Just Can't Live" with N.S.P.(Fireman Bahb, Keenan Smooth, and myself). I hope you like it. We are based out of Chicago where Prentiz performed "Santa Plays Guitar" live on 97.9 fm radio, Wlup "The Loop", Home of the Johnathon Brandmeier show, in Chicago. U rock Johnny B! Below is my Christmas video that you can also view on Youtube. It's called "Santa Plays Guitar", an original song by John Ramberg. You can hear the better quality sound of it above in my playlist of original songs. I could sure use the hits and ratings on Youtube, though. Below are other videos of cover songs from Santana and The Mars Volta that my star student Max and myself are performing at concerts I hold for them each year. On the keyboards is Patrick, drums are played by Fonse, and other singer is Ray Mora. Thank u all 4 all ur support. Check Us Out!

We were doing a Christmas drive on a local tv station in Romeoville, Illinois. "WINDS OF CHICAGO" was a successful party band I was in in the 90's. Boy, what good times we had. Wow, was I fat! I hate lookin' at myself in these videos, but what are you gonna do? I've lost a lotta weight since then and I feel great about that. Anyway, check them out, I hope u like em'.
Sounds Like: If you listen closely you can hear Yes, Santana, and maybe Eric Clapton influences in my music, so people, may say. I guess I can agree with that. Speaking of Santana, below is a video of Black Magic Woman the "WINDS OF CHICAGO" shot at Columbia University back in 1995. Thank you Marizen Calip for gracing "Play It By Ear" with your wonderful voice. My Beautiful cousin Vanessa Valtierra and friend Kristie Bordelon sang background vocals on it. Ava Fain blew my dome with her vocals on "The Storm", and did her own background vocals. Brante Segard, an intern at 35st. Studios here in Chicago (great bunch of guys), sang background vocals on "Santa Plays Guitar".
