John Vento self-describes as making Americana Classic Rock with Indie Folk Pop surprises, which you can find when he performs solo, with Nied's Hotel Band, or, in the past, with Xposure and Bmen. He has sometimes been called the chameleon of Pittsburgh's music scene. You can find more of his influence through the kind of programs hosted by Steamworks Creative/Steamworks Spirit Station and the work of Band Together Pittsburgh - Music with People on the Autism Spectrum. Also find John on FB.
