John Lilly is a multi-talented acoustic music performer from Charleston, West Virginia, specializing in Americana, country roots, and traditional folk music. He writes new songs that sound as old as the hills, and performs older songs like they were made yesterday. According to one reviewer, “If Hank Williams had a sunny disposition, he’d be John Lilly.” A former resident of Champaign-Urbana and student at the University of Illinois, John was active with the Red Herring Coffeehouse and WPGU radio between 1972 and 1977.
