NASHVILLE, Tenn. (August 19, 2019) — John Berry, a Grammy winning singer/songwriter, announced in January of this year, he had been diagnosed with throat cancer. Recent follow-up scans reveal he is cancer free. He continues to tour and will embark on his 23rd Annual “Songs and Stories With John Berry Christmas Tour” this Fall.

In a video narrated by Berry, he shares intimate moments filmed during a benefit held on his behalf in April as he performed his current single “The Richest Man” as well as his personal reflection about the inspiration behind the song. The song is dedicated to his dad who taught him that the most valuable things in life typically had very little to do with money. Watch the video here.

“It is with a grateful heart for a dad that loved me and showed me what was important in life that I dedicate this work to my father, Jim Berry, and to other fathers that walked before and after him, that strove to make their children’s lives full and rich in what really mattered, faith, family, and friends,” said John Berry.

“The Richest Man,” off his latest project, Thomas Road,  is a poignant, heartfelt and personal song penned by Berry, Liz Hengber and Will Robinson. The song was co-produced by Barry Weeks as well as longtime friend and producer Chuck Howard, who produced all of the familiar Berry hits over the years, including last summer’s Top 30 song,”Beautifully Broken” from the hit film of the same name.

“I never tire of hearing this most fundamental message of country music — happiness doesn’t lie in wealth, but in love. Few have the heart and soul to deliver it as effectively as this guy. Brilliantly crafted, wonderfully melodic, exquisitely poetic and flawlessly produced.” MusicRow Magazine DISCovery by Robert K Oermann.

It is no surprise that John Berry quickly sells out venues all over the country.  The Entertainment Nexus once described the award-winning entertainer as “one of the most remarkable voices in music.”
