John Sheehan is a composer, finger-style guitarist and singer-songwriter from Ringwood, New Jersey. He is a steadfast proponent of the solo finger-style guitar performance. Three of John's compositions have been used as backdrops for videos: "Old Mill Rag," a TV-cinema ad for Sky Digital in the UK; "Buggy Ride," in a short film on safety called "The Eddie Adams Tragedy," released by the Weyerhauser Corporation and Rocket; pictures of Seattle, Washington; and "Cliffs of Moher," in a promotional film for the Emily Williston Memorial Library of Easthampton, Massachusetts. "Landrush," a banjo instrumental, is used to open and close Dave Bryce's "Rural Delivery" show on 88 Country in Christchurch, New Zealand, every Sunday evening.

Sincere listeners of his music have compared him to such diverse artists as Leo Kottke, Jorma Kaukonen, Mark Knophler, Michael Hedges, John Prine, Steve Earle and Jimmy Buffett. John gives credit to J.S. Bach and John Fahey as well as many more. He has shared the stage with guitar greats Tal Farlow,John Hammond, Jorma,Peter Kaukonen, Tom Doyle, John Renbourne, and Adrian Legge, as well as singer-songwriters Chris Smithers, Jonathan Edwards, Greg Brown and Slaid Cleaves.

Discography: "Instrumental Solo Guitar" 1995, "Modern Man" 1999, "Notes From Suburbia" 2003, "Instrumental Solo Christmas Guitar" 2005.
