Western Canadian singer/songwriter John Gogo is from a large musical family in Nanaimo. After a two year stint as a Chokerman in a logging camp, he began his professional musical career with two of his brothers in the progressive rock band Graphics, touring around BC and Alberta.

In 1985 John switched gears and began playing his acoustic guitar in pubs, beer parlours and at folk festivals. He released his first album 'Coal & Wood' in 1990, with original songs about his family history in mining and logging. This was his first of five full-length recordings of his original songs.

His 2015 release 'Coal & Wood (Revisited)' is a return to his early 'folk singer' days, featuring 2 songs from the original album plus a handful of new originals about people, places and historical events of Canada's western islands.
