John's music simply stated...childhood memories.
Minneapolis, MN, USA
John's music and social activism have been extremely influential in my life and have provided me comfort and inspiration. My first pilgrimage to Seymour was in 1984 when I was 13 years old!
I love the small town, local pride you feel within his music and lyrics.
John Mellencamp's music has been a part of my entire life. It seems as if his music grew with me. From being a teenager and hanging out with friends; listening to a new album with my husband or playing his music while dancing with the kids in the living room.
I grew up in in a small Indiana town not far from Seymour so I take a little pride in growing up in a small town!
He tells stories with his music and his art and that is what I like.

John's music to me.. I was born in a small town too
John's music touches the soul and is truly one of the greatest songwriters of our time
