Raised on the grooves of 45's and LP's on the Bayou in South Louisiana listening to the vibes of Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, Carl Perkins, Beatles, and I loved everything Motown!
I fell in love, in love with music. Got my first guitar at 6....really just a toy. Real guitar by 9 and my D and F chords down before moving on....and on and on.
Started writing around 15 years old. Fell in love with a girl in high school....shortly after I fell in love with alcohol and drugs.
THEN!! I lived a semi-responsible life raising a family.
Fast forward 35 years and I'm back!!
Rockin'........back to my first love!!
Writing light hearted music with a dash of naughtiness here and there. FUN!
2 Projects in the works at this time (Oct.2012) keeping me BUSY!

I'm a product of the 60's and 70's who was greatly influenced by the various groups of that time. The one group that had a major part of my music was the "Beatles". Even though I put music aside for many years, I now am finding my own niche and enjoying every moment. My writing and playing is growng and improving with each song that I start.
I'm finding it's difficult to put a specific label on the type of music I perform. Feedback from people vary from Jimmy Buffett, Beach Boys, Ricky Nelson, Peter Noone, etc. A couple music publishers and A&R people have just said that while good it is hard to define.
Recently released my first CD titled "Gaudet". There are 11 original songs written and played by me. You can have a listen to four of the songs on "myspace.com/JohnGaudetmusic. Have a listen. Enjoy
