Ohio-based John has been involved in recording from the age of 12. As John developed into a young man his musical abilities meant he would work alongside some respected Christian artists as well as being involved with major groups such as faze-O and Dayton and with his brother Dr Stephen A Harden as the Harden Brothers. With the help of this brother, John launched the record label HB which has been busy ever since. John has been involved in many musical projects, and also been invited on many TV shows. Overall this album has a very chilled out vibe to it with music that has been very cleverly put together. However, despite the well planned melodies and harmonies there is not much in the way of lyrics; John seems to be reminding us that songs can have just a powerful impact without the need for words. In fact, tracks like "Even In The Storm" give a very clear message of the faithfulness of Jesus without using any lyrics at all. If you are looking for music that doesn't need many lyrics to explain what it aims to convey, or if you are looking for music that speaks of the goodness of God via channels of peace and serenity then John W Harden is your man.

John, it's been wonderful to watch you and your music grow up together! Just like a fine bottle of wine, it just get's better with time! Keep on composing what is in your heart, can't no one else match that, for sure! (Abadola)
