ARTIST BACKGROUND

About John Sebastian

John Sebastian combined songwriting with guitar, harmonica and autoharp playing. As a founder of the Lovin' Spoonful he helped connect folk sources with a pop band setting, before developing a solo recording career. His impromptu Woodstock appearance became part of that solo history. Albums including John B. Sebastian, The Four of Us and Tarzana Kid explored a range of styles, while Welcome Back connected his songwriting with television and a 1976 commercial hit.
