Testimonials:
“In a world where it seems like anyone can project themselves as whatever they want to be, finding someone who is authentically gifted at what they do is a rarity and a treasure. John Lucas is the embodiment of the creativity he represents, and every song he puts his fingerprint on comes out sounding so much richer and complete. He treated my songs and ideas with tenderness and respect, gave so much to our co-write, and ultimately fleshed out my EP in a manner beyond my expectations. Making music is a sacred thing, and he can be trusted with the entire process.”
-Liv Douglas
“I had the joy of working on some songs with John Lucas last October. I have always struggled with the idea that maybe I should give up trying to write music; maybe I have nothing to say. In that one day as he listened to my small musical offerings, he brought so much courage and confidence to my heart. He listened to my stories, my history. He was intentional, prepared to support my vision for these songs, and offered thoughtful suggestions. He was a generous host - even making me breakfast! Danielle and Lucas opened their home to me to stay overnight and I felt loved and seen. Lucas is kind, incredibly gifted, an encourager and friend. I made much progress writing after working with him.”
-Julie Clark
"I'm likely an outlier of those who have worked with John Lucas, being that I've never finished a song prior to working with him. My half-baked ideas, frustrations, and inexperience were met with a wisdom that only comes from years of fighting past creative blocks to translate what the heart longs to express through a finished work. It's not often you find someone who honors your ideas but also has the confidence to humbly redirect them to greener pastures. I wrote my first song (and a few other good starts) with the help of John Lucas and I'll be forever grateful for that momentum through the course of my life."
-Ryan Vernich
“Working with John Lucas was such a great experience for me as an artist. I had been in a major creative rut for the past couple years, and he helped me get out of it and create new music I couldn’t even have imagined before I connected with him. His encouragement and ideas were beyond helpful. Besides that, he's a really fun and positive person to connect with! Again, I was beyond blessed to be able have such an amazing opportunity."
-Lily Rice
“More than anything, Lucas just really helped me pull out the voice and heart that was already inside of me. Sometimes you just need someone to look at it from the outside and help you hear, not just what needs ‘fixing’, but all the potential for growth.”
-Mikayla Brown
