JOHN HARDIE BIOGRAPHY

John Hardie was born in London and, after studying at England's progressive Leeds University for three years, made a professional commitment to music. Although he considers himself a jazz pianist at heart, he has appeared with a variety of musical groups, and as a soloist, performing a range of music from country to dance orchestra and back by way of top-40 cover bands. He has traveled and performed extensively and his distinctive voice, absolute command of the keyboard along with his agility on the guitar have earned him a solid international reputation as an all-around entertainer.

During the season, John is resident entertainer for Toscana Country Club in Indian Wells.

A born educator, he employs and enjoys his talents as a teacher, composer and arranger at Willow Creek Productions in Palm Desert, the realization of a lifelong dream.
