Info zu Garden Snake

Singer/songwriter John-Robert releases a collection of songs that skillfully blur the lines between acoustic folk and pop, Garden Snake features recent singles “Westward Bound” and “Sweet Child”. The album is out now and available via Nice Life.

“It's a return to form inspired by my musical upbringing in Virginia,” John-Robert shares about the new EP. “This project feels the most like myself, and the songs feel lived in. While the writing process was me grieving the loss of a previous relationship; the recording process was a celebration of all the new ones.”

"Garden Snake is more than just a return to form for John-Robert; it's a testament to his growth as an artist. The EP successfully captures the essence of his musical upbringing in Virginia while showcasing his ability to navigate the intricate intersections of different genres. With each track, John-Robert invites the listener into his world, where personal stories and musical craftsmanship coalesce into a truly engaging and memorable experience." (Samuel Stevens, crucialrhythm.com)

"In the short fifteen minutes that is Garden Snake, John-Robert is able to bring us from his home in Virginia all the way out west to LA and back. Together we experienced heartbreak, the void that’s left on half the bed when they leave, and the acceptance that it’ll stay there but life will go on. It’s a lovely little twisting path that I got to walk down and hope you do too. The standout moments for me were definitely Westward Bound followed closely by Come Pick Me Up, but there is a lot to enjoy on each track that demands a listen for yourself." (Dylan Wallace, musicscenemedia.com)

John-Robert
has been a notable performer since he was a child, it is simply what he was born to do. At only 13 years old, John-Robert was handpicked to perform on the Ellen show as a musical child prodigy. At 19, he left his hometown Edinburg, VA (pop. 1,070) in 2019 to move to LA and start his music career, bypassing a scholarship to Berklee. He was signed to Nice Life/ Warner by Grammy-nominated producer Ricky Reed (Leon Bridges, Lizzo) and released a handful of singles and EPs over a few years, earning him co-signs from artists Alessia Cara and Camilla Cabello. But it was a live fireside performance of his 2023 song “Come Pick Me Up” that catapulted John-Robert’s lilting blend of traditional folk and Appalachian country into the modern pop landscape. He toured extensively in 2023 and 2024 in the US and abroad supporting artists like Madi Diaz, Rayland Baxter, Leon Bridges and even Liam Gallagher.

Virginia, and his family there, has always been a source of inspiration for the singer-songwriter. On making his 2023 EP Garden Snake he says, “It was like trying to make a Virginia record in LA.” A move back home to Virginia in early 2025 made perfect sense as he embarked on creating a new body of work. The move was a way to pull himself out of the professional and personal turmoil of LA, and reconnect with the people and places that made him who he is today – the banks of the North Fork Shenandoah River and rolling hillsides, the home-cooked meals and close-knit community. Expect more music and live shows from John-Robert throughout 2025 and beyond.
