John Torres
Biography
Musically, it is safe to say that the first thing most people
notice about John Torres is his voice. Powerful, yet intimate,
it draws listeners into moments of reflection and
contemplation.
However, it doesn¹t take long to learn that John is also a
talented songwriter as well. His music, mostly
autobiographical, is a transparent journal that takes listeners
by the hand and walks them through moments of love,
the quest for truth, and the desire to become better people.
Loosely described, Torres is a Contemporary Folk
and Pop artist who best fits in the conversation with names
like David Gray, Joni Mitchell, and Dave Mathews.
A Los Angeles Native, John attended UCLA and then spent
a few years performing in Musical Theatre productions both
in Los Angeles and New York, a few of which garnered national
recognition. He has performed in almost every major stadium
and arena in the country and has traveled internationally to play
as well. He has worked with multi-platinum artists such as
Guy Roche and Steve Porcaro, and his voice and music can be heard
in both film and television.
Currently, John is working on a record that he considers to be a long
overdue document of his musical and personal experiences, and
the artistic paving for his future.
