John, Paul Hodge is a citizen of, and certified artist for, the Cherokee (tsalagi) Nation of Oklahoma. He was born and raised in northern California and is inter-related to family members of lake county Pomo bands. John, Paul writes, records and performs many styles of music. His deep soulful voice adds weight to the heavy nature of his more spiritual songs, intended to connect and strengthen all my relations; songs about salmon, labor, prison, alcoholism and smudging. He can also quickly become a clown and ease the audience with laughter, storytelling and with familiar songs. With his guitar and big voice his intention is to remind the people of their importance, power and connection with what he calls “our great-grandmother’s spirit”.
