John Wesley

Porcupine Tree

The music of John Wesley has been called lyrically sensitive and musically dynamic. Wesley’s current brand of guitar-driven acoustic and electric songs represent the cultivation of a diversity of inspirations from alternative, progressive, classic rock and folk genres intertwined with poignant lyrics drawn from the poetry of the common man. Furthermore, his skillful, versatile and energetic guitar style complements with fury his soulful emotionally-charged vocals reminiscent of Roger Waters or Bruce Springsteen. But what really appeals to Wesley’s fans worldwide is a spark of sincerity and sensitivity so oft absent in today’s mainstream music. Most recently, John Wesley has performed as sideman, guitarist/vocalist for critically acclaimed Lava/Warner Brothers UK based recording act Porcupine Tree, during the In Absentia and Deadwing world tours.

"There is an aspect of quality, tone and feel that is instantly appealing in a PRS and I think most players would cite these traits as main reasons for choosing PRS guitars. These factors play into it for sure, but for me, there is an element of ‘connection’ that I find more often in PRS guitars as compared to other instruments I have owned and played through the years".
