John Fitzgerald

About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorJohn Fitzgerald is a Folk Rock singer/songwriter from Gloucester and proud of it. John brings his own experience and songwriting style to the table in the area.


John sings ballads with influences ranging from Medieval Stories of Gloucester, tales of love and lost, innocence, the end of life, political struggles and tales from ireland - a key part of his heritige.


John takes his musical influences from the likes of Bob Dylan, Elliott Smith Seth Lakeman Billy Bragg, Tom Waits and the Levellers. With the great story telling and simplicity that folk music can offer we look forward to hearing some interesting music that John is working on with his demo. (Working Title Culture)


Anyway check out his website at soundclick.com - which a hi-fi version of Anne Marie is available and look out for John in and around Gloucestershire!


More songs coming soon from the midnight sessions and from demo
