Recorded at Lambertville-based Thunder Pumpkin Records, "Heading for the Sun", showcases a collection of danceable songs with pithy lyrics and rhythms that drive and swing. Favorite local talent like John Sonntag, Jason Bonthron, Pat McSherry and others sweeten the deal by contributing guitar, bass, drums sax and vocals to John's hooky licks, punchy horn blasts and soulful piano bites, complementing his expressive, honest, gritty and sometimes edgey Lou Reed-esque vocal delivery.
