Live Music: John Sharkey

Hailing from Scotland and now based in Picton, John Sharkey is a multi- instrumentalist and vocalist known for heartfelt, feel-good performances that span blues, rock, Motown, pop, and more. With a repertoire rooted in the 50s through the 90s—and a few modern tunes thrown in—John tailors every show to the moment, whether it’s a lively pub night, a quiet dinner set, or a festival crowd. He’s played hundreds of shows across Canada, Scotland, and Mexico, always aiming to bring people together through music. When he's not on stage, he co-runs K-Shark Audio, a full-service audio production studio offering recording, mixing, and composition.
