Benefit for the Cheshire YMCA
All Ages

Originally from Saint Louis, Missouri, John was influenced early on by that town's rhythm and blues and his Oklahoma mother’s singing. This funky start was drastically tempered by a nine-year stint in a Catholic seminary where silence and Gregorian chant were his daily bread. After leaving the brotherhood, and armed only with his vow of poverty, John moved to New England and pursued the path of an itinerant musician, playing in sundry bands and bad barrooms. It was during this time, he realized, that his audience could not understand Latin.

His music is memorable, poignant, hopeful, wise, and passionate. Winner of both the 2003 Boston Folk Festival Songwriting Contest & the 2006 Rose Garden Performing Songwriting Competition, John lives in Jaffrey, NH with his wife, Jane and cats, Iko & Godzilla.

"New Hampshire's John Schindler knows how to translate life into wise, oddly witty songs and his new Memory Train album collects many of the calm little gems he's been writing in recent years." Daniel Gewertz, The Boston Herald
