Secondhand Serenade

Secondhand Serenade is the solo project of American rock musician John Vesely. He has released four studio albums under the name, beginning with a debut that used multitrack recording to create the illusion of a full band, followed by a second album that incorporated a live band and  synthesizers. Secondhand Serenade’s early releases are now regarded as classics of the 2000s emo scene. Kerrang! described the project as a “MySpace band”. John Vesely (born February 5, 1982) began performing as Secondhand Serenade in his hometown of Menlo Park, California, in 2004. Raised in the San Francisco Bay Area as the son of a jazz musician, he became interested in music at age twelve. He spent eight years playing bass in local bands, performing in groups that ranged from ska and hardcore to rock and pop. One of these bands, Sounds Like Life, included Ronnie Day. After years as a bassist, Vesely switched to acoustic guitar, following in the tradition of John Ondrasik’s Five for Fighting. He is also the son of a Czech immigrant. Vesely eventually found success with his solo project, Secondhand Serenade.
