À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
John Oliver is a Pittsburgh native who has been singing, writing songs and playing piano and keyboards virtually all his life.
During the early 1980s, the Carlynton High School graduate was part of a band called Endless Summer that he formed with several friends. They played Beach Boys-inspired surf music in a wide variety of Pittsburgh-area venues from Crafton Park and at least one 3WS Radio Gateway Clipper cruise to countless shows in area nightclubs. Oliver was the front man, lead singer and keyboard player.
In 2018, he was inspired to write a full album of solo material, which will be released in 2019. Recording the tracks in his home studio, often accompanied by vocal and instrumental parts provided by his longtime friends and former Endless Summer bandmates (including bassist Jeff Hoffman on nearly every track), Oliver is taking his music in a new direction.
