Four years ago today John Wright passed away, would like people to take another look at this brilliant singers work including his latest album Empty Chairs released October 2011.
John really knew how to cover other peoples work in an exceptional way, with a passion for his job & love of meeting his friends & fans I have yet to find another artist like him.
See his web site www.johnwrightmusic.co.uk for more information on new things happening in his memory & to leave messages on his book of rememberance.

The first time I heard John Wright was at Cleckheaton not that many years back, when Huw & tony Williams were there too. What a weekend that was!

Very big friend of Alan Taylor.

I have a wonderful version of Roll On The Day recorded by a Dutch Folk Choir that John sang with.

4 years unbelievable
