BUT YOU CAN CALL ME JOHN

@butyoucancallmejohn

BUT YOU CAN CALL ME JOHN is a folk punk band created by John Tomasevich. He wrote, recorded and mixed his first record, "mediocrity von repetition!" in his Raleigh, North Carolina apartment over the closing months of 2015. The record combines the angst of his punk rock heroes Against Me! with the folk, heartland rock sound of his first musical love, John Mellencamp. His second record, "The Default Opener", was released on April 18th, 2017.

Never thought I’d say this in my lifetime, but many congrats to the playoff bound @clevelandbrowns ! https://www.instagram.com/p/CJmmH29HnR0eS5aWvLBlOhH73M2V_NPK7d_PzY0/?igshid=zetc0he7mmbn

After getting completely sidetracked with this damn quarantine and finally realizing after a month of being furloughed from my job and trying to get caught up with everything outside of work, I finally got BUT YOU CAN CALL ME JOHN’s new record, “Ella”, up on all streaming sites. Spotify link is below. I have 0 followers. Can I get just 1? 🙏 https://open.spotify.com/album/1FyB1mAlPGl6Peswjz2lq9?si=yZISQL3XTeWJB0S3UpgRTQ (at Burlington, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CADLGOTHAzoR893gGUlOCNMdUNyBAfd1YRa_4s0/?igshid=10yan49hd5d3q

Just got added to this banger at @the_night_rider_raleigh on Saturday March 21st with my homies @cambriaironco and @severedfingers. Early show, starts at 8. Don’t get back to Raleigh much these days and would love to see you. (at The Night Rider) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9c4Koyn_QWARdT34B9IkmjVfyk3_IKy8RBi0c0/?igshid=1q0h0z2zx197g

Come out to @thepourhouse this afternoon to hear me play a bunch of tunes that I haven’t played in a loooong time. Free show and starts at 3 PM. (at The Pour House Music Hall & Record Shop) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7gVHuOnqRIdPIXNDSVRAQGl4z7DeV6PEhUPbg0/?igshid=b1nn0uz25ask

Playing for the first time in a year (or longer) at the new record shop at @thepourhouse. Free show. I start at 3 and am playing for a long ass time. Love to see all my Raleigh friends I haven't seen in a while (if I haven't mentioned it yet, I'm in Burlington now and don't get back to Raleigh much). Also it's in the afternoon and I know all my parent friends don't put their damn kids to sleep then (maybe a nap, I guess, but tell them to skip one). Also, there's records. And beer. And it's free. butyoucancallmejohn.bandcamp.com (at The Pour House Music Hall & Record Shop) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7O5TD_nAJMn3XiIKrdGItDlUjK9dEaoWz8A8M0/?igshid=1pft4aujxs7j2

Thanks everyone for your support in 2019. Happy to finally release my first full length, "Ella", I'd been recording for well over a year (because I'm busy and lazy). Also excited to be stepping out for the first time in what seems like forever to hit up @thepourhouse for a free afternoon set on Sunday, January 19th. All my dear old Raleigh friends who are in their mid-thirties with children: I play at 3. That's not past your bedtime. Love to see you. butyoucancallmejohn.bandcamp.com (at The Pour House Music Hall & Record Shop) https://www.instagram.com/p/B61YmYxHUw2_ioO_1yt0OeGspRypAi6apjeMsE0/?igshid=127y69mjf0k5y

Happy 1 month to the new record. Repost, share, steal. Link in profile. https://www.instagram.com/p/B4nG_xVHDE0Aj_sZsGCInR9LktLpAlj5sW5inU0/?igshid=i100ps4wc6d9

Thanks for the kind words for the new record. It’s appreciated more than you know. If you have 2-60 seconds, a share that I have a new record out is all I ask. I’m a demanding little guy #ella https://www.instagram.com/p/B3qB9einNUINeVXt5Z7jBcYmiEnD9gbC59Q5-o0/?igshid=jux2sun9z3hr

Happy to announce that after a year and a half (or maybe more. I've lost track), @butyoucancallmejohn new record, "Ella", is available at butyoucancallmejohn.bandcamp.com/album/ella. Pay what you want for it, illegally download it, sell it on the black market; whatever your heart desires. I'll have it up on all those lovely digital sites in the next few weeks (Spotify, Pandora...LimeWire?). I'll also be getting back to the show circuit as soon as possible (acoustic and full band). Life has gotten in the way, but I can't stay away from playing live for too long. Hope you enjoy this record as much as I do. Thanks again to the 4-5 people who keep up with my music. Means a lot. As always, it would mean more to me than money ever will if you could give this a share that I have a new record out. Thanks much and see you soon. https://www.instagram.com/p/B3XSTevnPq27tGAr6QV52qkdhbdZzefenlY9wM0/?igshid=121og48be0oap

One week. https://www.instagram.com/p/B3FGL3inF7RZG--KbSLdm4qw8aNQQT0fvUQQWE0/?igshid=1laocj453s2wj

Two new songs off the new record are up at butyoucancallmejohn.bandcamp.com. New record, “Ella”, drops 10/8. https://www.instagram.com/p/B2sTak5ntsQ1ghWBHXi6xQUDd53Vjb13Q5q4Og0/?igshid=qtv17bpo8ta1
