Some people are aware, while others may suspect, but more and more people are finding out about John Ludy Puleo’s vocal talent and ultimate passion for performing. Even John’s earliest memories are filled with the sound of music playing from his parents’ hi-fi stereo phonograph and him singing along at the top of his lungs! His parents’ love for song and lyric took hold of John and are deeply rooted in whom he is and how he expresses himself. Early influences of Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, Elvis, Tom Jones and Motown greats helped shape John’s abilities and channeled his desire to entertain those around him. As his family sang locally with several music groups during his formative years, John quickly jumped at opportunities to fill in for his father’s tenor parts with lead vocalist Butch Paige and Agnus & the Kids.

John and his sister, Kerri Lynn, fronted the popular cover band DoubleTake that played many popular venues between Chicago & Milwaukee during the 1980′s, while John later pursued opportunities with the bands “Take2″ and “The Believers”. John and Believers lead guitarist Billy Protine colaborated on the 1997 release of the “Comet” CD and he was also a featured vocalist on the 2000 release of the Scott Modlin/Rex Carroll project entitled “Moral Control”. John’s love for singing continued through his leading worship for several years and recently as lead singer for Transformation Band a classic rock-inspired group based in Lake County, IL.

In 2009, John decided to rekindle his love for the standards by performing a solo act showcasing the music made popular by Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Tony Bennett while he embraces the cool wave of music coming from the likes of Michael Buble’, Sting, and Harry Connick Jr.
