As well as being a songwriter\/guitarist for hire, JOHN 5 has shared the stage as axe-man for Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson and Rob Halford. He has also worked with an impressive array of names, from all walks of music, including KD Lang, Rod Stewart, David Lee Roth, Alice Cooper, Scorpions, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Meatloaf, Dolly Parton and Ricky Martin. In October 2022, it was announced that JOHN 5 would be joining M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce as their guitarist following the announcement that Mick Mars would be retiring. JOHN 5 continues to tour with M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce including an upcoming residency in Las Vegas in 2025. To call JOHN 5 a shredder does not do him justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Follow JOHN 5 online:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Official Website:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/8d54abuewanaeqeqeanawjuanahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/john-5.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Facebook:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/4b69ebueqazaeqeqeadawjuaxahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/facebook.com\/john5official<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instagram:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/57bb5bueyakaeqeqeacawjuarahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/instagram.com\/john5official<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Twitter:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/022d6bumsataeqeqeaoawjuaiahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/john5guitarist<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">YouTube:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/34164bumuaoaeqeqeaaawjuakahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/john5officialYT\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">TikTok:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/8d876bumeadaeqeqeaiawjuaaahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@john5official<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Official Webstore:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/9af41bummacaeqeqeavawjuafahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/john5store.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guitar virtuoso&nbsp;John 5&nbsp;has&nbsp;announced new details including the full track listing and special guests for his highly anticipated solo album,&nbsp;Ghost,&nbsp;out&nbsp;October 10&nbsp;and&nbsp;produced and mixed by&nbsp;Barry Pointer.
