John Lensing started out as a street performer, writing songs and driving around the US to play them for people. Slowly, this led to playing shows and festivals, but the goal has always been the same. To make people care — about others, themselves, and things that sometimes hurt to care about.
 
His genre-blurring songwriting has brought him on tours all across North America and Europe. Most notably playing a Sofar Sounds showcase at the Sommer in Altona festival (Hamburg), and being named “an artist to watch” by No Depression.
