John Gallen celebrates music with five new singles to honor the arrival of his second album in 2023.
Music artists always push their creative limits to the test by mixing new-age trends in their releases and surprising the audience with their artistic versatility. Nothing defines this versatility better than the music that throws it back to the 1970s. John Gallen makes this a reality with his five new singles from the “1970s” album to mark the release of his new album in May 2023.
A product of the lockdown, the 1970s is full of wit and fun as an album of sophisticated white soul-pop-rock. Sprinkled with delectable brass and strings, it features a band – top session players among them – that can boogie, and excellent vocals and harmonies, all brought together under the watchful ears of the accomplished Billy Farrell, at the production desk.
John’s first single “Positive Attitude” got the no.1 spot on Apple and his debut album went No.1 Independent and No.5 Official in Ireland in 2022. Hot Press Magazine rated John’s debut album 9/10 and he has reached around the world, and is moving at pace over the past six months. His top ten listening audience is now: the USA, Mexico, Brazil, UK, Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, Canada, and Switzerland.
Enigmatic Musician With Hunger For Creativity
The charismatic man refutes that music needs to follow a certain norm. Instead, his work digs deep into the crevices of the mind and finds the most eccentric topics to write about. Aside from being a talented artist, he’s also a seasoned multi-instrumentalist, composer, and lyricist, he is also internationally recognized as a leading lawyer.
At the age of 15, he started making music in the studio and testing his creative abilities. But, life is unpredictable and his career changed gears when he was 17. After a long hiatus, he reverted back to his profound love for—music.
John derives inspiration from the most thrilling encounters of his life as a lawyer. One of his songs, “Enemy” recollects his meeting with a Libyan warlord in his capacity as adviser to the warring governments of Libya before the UN.
His lyrics are an expedition to enlightenment that combine observational melody with real stories.
John lives by the quote “Go anywhere, do anything”. His liberal view of life allows him to experience vivid events and imbibe their lessons into an instrumental entertaining track. Being a composer and lyricist, he is involved in every stage of music creation and he makes sure to add a taste of his personality to every aspect of it.
The vision for the next five years is to release one new album every year, reaching a global fanbase and bringing the juggernaut of his 12-piece band to different countries.
