kazem john

Born and raised in South Florida, Kazem John is an unconventional violinist. Kazem John frequently visits his fathers side of the family in Iran. He plans to travel there this summer to study traditional Persian music, in hopes of bringing two cultures together musically in the future. Kazem John first picked up the violin at the age of 6 and has taken lessons classically up until the age of 18. He then underwent two shoulder surgeries, rendering him unfit to play for nearly 2 years. Once fully recovered, he began to journey outside the classical realm of music, experimenting with many genres of backing tracks/instrumentals he’d find on YouTube. Improvising over these tracks sparked the way to his true passion.

He freestyles or improvises all his music, mostly blending all genres. Having just turned 25, he recently graduated from Full Sail University with a Bachelors Degree in Music Production in Orlando, Fl. Kazem John is currently working on producing and releasing his first EP.
