John Fonvielle Wilmington, North Carolina
John Fonvielle has played in bands and on records for 40 years. In 2015, he released his first collection of solo work,

His influences range from Bob Dylan for his melodies and lyrics, to The Band for the musicality, Warren Zevon for his intelligence, and Tom Waits for, well, being Tom Waits.
