John Eddie is a true multi-hyphenate: an accomplished singer-songwriter, recording artist and dynamic live performer, who in recent years has also branched out into writing and producing for film and television. Eddie has developed a dedicated and devoted following with his engaging stage presence and heartfelt songs infused with raw, real-world lyrics, cutting wit, and musings on life, love and everything that falls in between. These themes, woven together in his unique and captivating storytelling, can be found in the songs he’s written for himself and those recorded by other major artists.
Following the release of his Universal-Lost Highway record Who the Hell is John Eddie?, Eddie moved to Nashville, where his songs were discovered and recorded by the likes of Brantley Gilbert, Keith Urban, Kid Rock, Sammy Hagar, Colt Ford and James Otto, among many others. As a touring musician, Eddie has performed with Miranda Lambert, Bob Seger, John Mayer, Thomas Rhett, Jake Owen, Shooter Jennings, and countless others. Legendary Rock and Roll Hall Of Famer Bruce Springsteen became an early fan and has joined Eddie frequently over the years on stage. The John Eddie/Brantley Gilbert co-write “More Than Miles,” became a Platinum-selling top country hit for Gilbert, peaking at number six on the Billboard country charts.
Kid Rock has cut multiple songs of Eddie’s to widespread acclaim including “Lowlife (Living the Highlife),” “Happy New Year,” “Fifty,” “Rockin’,” and “Bad Reputation,” the title track of his latest album. Songs of John Eddie’s have appeared in television series such as “Friday Night Lights,” “The Shield” and the Sundance Channel’s “The Red Road.” He is the writer, creator and executive producer, alongside Priscilla Presley, of the upcoming Netflix adult animated series “Agent Elvis” in which Elvis Presley leads a double life as a secret agent, while holding down his day job as the King of Rock n Roll.
