SMASHHARRY

When SmashHarry was a college student, something happened that completely changed his life. He was only seventeen years old when he had an epiphany in the college library. Someone touched his right shoulder and gently said to him, "You are going to be a professional songwriter." To this day, he can still vividly remember that moment.

The interesting thing was, John couldn't play a instrument nor did he write any lyrics. But after hearing those words, he thought to himself, "If I am going to be a songwriter, maybe I should learn an instrument and how to read music." So without hesitation, he left his studies behind and went down to the library's music section.

As he browsed through several books, one caught his eye with the title "How to Read Music." When he opened it up, he saw piano keys on the pages — that’s why he became a pianist. From that moment on, everything changed for him. He became determined to make his dream of being a songwriter come true.

Today, SmashHarry is known for his funky pop tunes with some retro vibes. But don't be surprised if you hear other genres like soul, latin and singer-songwriter from him too! His first instrumental album is called Call of the Wild. Go to SYNCS to hear more!

He truly embraced his passion for music and has become a successful professional songwriter thanks to a life-changing moment at just seventeen years old.
