John first did stand-up comedy in a school talent show when he was only eight years old and he has been entertaining audiences ever since. He has taken the stage over 6,000 times in front of more than two million people and has worked with Oscar, Emmy and Grammy winners. He has appeared on Newsmax and was the last comedian to perform on Huckabee. He has also been heard on Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy's Comedy Roundup.


He has worked with every comedian from legends such as Milton Berle, Soupy Sales and Tommy Chong to current stars like Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle and Jamie Foxx. John has also shared the stage with numerous music acts including Michael Bolton, Frankie Valli, Herman's Hermits, Styx, Chubby Checker and Martina McBride.




Just some of the companies and organizations John has entertained include Hardee's, Wells Fargo, Coldwell Banker, Aetna, The United Way, IBM and Met Life. He has appeared on CBS-TV's "Central Park West" and was a semi-finalist in the HBO Aspen Comedy Festival. John is the author of four books including "The Maintenance Man's Gift" and "I'm the South" which has sold in the top 0.050% of all books ever published. He's the co-author of three other books including the Amazon nest selling "1 Habit".


John has been called modern day versions of Mark Twain and Andy Griffith. Though his accent is as thick as a bowl of grits, his performances are not regional. In fact, his career has taken him to all 50 states and over forty countries. He has been a regular entertainer for Carnival Cruise Lines where his ship received the highest comedy rating in their fleet in both 2007 and 2009. He was a finalist and voted audience favorite in the 2013 Clean Comedy Challenge and was runner-up in Dave Coulier's Clean Guys of Comedy Unbleepable Contest.


John says the men in his family have always been funny and great story tellers., he's just the first one to do it on a stage instead of a front porch!
