John Siden is Surface Noise, John grew up surrounded by music from a young age. John’s father played guitar and performed in bars prior to John being born, and his mother also loved music.

 There was always music playing around the house or while driving in the car, mostly    Country and Western on all forms, including vinyl, 8-track, and cassette.

John’s first personal interest in music was piqued when he saw an ad for the Monkees TV show, featuring reruns, which as an eight-year-old, he had no idea these episodes were from the ’60s.
