Bill Gray photographs sixteen year old singer-songwriter John Lennon McCullagh, who was the first signing to ex-Creation Records boss Alan McGee's new label 359 Music
John Lennon McCullagh was the first signing to 359 Music, ex-Creation Records boss Alan McGee's first label since Poptones. Only sixteen years old, John has been playing guitar and writing songs since he was twelve, and has drawn early comparisons with the young Bob Dylan both in his song delivery and also because of the political and social nature of his songs. His debut album 'North South Divide' came out when John was still just fifteen last October. John recently played his first full-length headlining tour of Britain. These photographs of John were taken by Bill Gray at One Ashton Road in Gourock on the 9th March.
