About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

"ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR!!" - Campus Activities Magazine "The Human iPod!" - The Boston Globe John has opened for: Fuel, Eve 6, Edwin McCain, Matt Kearney, Keller Williams, Howie Day, The Dixie Chicks, Matchbox 20, Joe Pisapia (Guster), and The Whalers! John Rush takes you on a musical journey like no other show can. Singing and playing guitar / bass / harmonica / piano / saxophone / banjo / keyboard and percussion John Rush plays his own original music and songs you know. If you think you've seen this before, you're wrong. John Rush is not just another singer/songwriter! Wowing audiences with his guitar work and capturing them with his voice and lyrics John Rush won Campus Entertainer of the Year and Campus Awards Musician of the Year! John Rush has a much larger sound than most solo musicians. Taking a unique approach, John performs with the help of a loop machine that allows him to record a guitar "loop" on the fly and then play lead, bass, harmonica, piano, and percussion over it. John beats on his guitar, plays bass lines, and expressive guitar leads that impress the most critical listeners. This allows him to sound like a whole band even though it's just John and a guitar.

CelebrationReviewed on July 4, 2022From Sturgis, MI

John Rush is a talented musician, an amazing showman and a great guy. We had so much fun, made some amazing memories and would love to have him share his musical gift with us again. I would recommend him to everyone for a great time.

Graduation PartyReviewed on September 2, 2021From Macomb, MI

Booked John Rush for our Grad party this summer. WOW! First he is just a great guy. Very helpful not only in setting himself up but offered to help in other areas. Second, his music is awesome. Playing literally anything and also allowed my younger daughter to help him DJ. The lighting was fantastic! His sound system was stage quality. I wish i could upload a cool video as we have plenty. Was very accommodating to stay later as the party just didn't stop! (Attribute to him) I highly recommend booking John. I hope to have the opportunity to book him again!

Hey, Rob! Thanks for the great review! I really appreciate it!
