Hi, I'm John.
I’m John Gnazzo—an author, songwriter, music producer, and podcaster from Minnesota. I’ve always loved a good story, whether it unfolds across the pages of a book, comes to life in a song, or starts a conversation behind a microphone. Curiosity, humor, and a sense of adventure run through everything I create.
Published through DGreatGnazzini Press LLC, my books range from science thrillers and children’s adventures to explorations of Minnesota’s history, places, and character. I enjoy taking readers somewhere unexpected, whether that means imagining another world or discovering something remarkable close to home.
Through DGreatGnazzini Records LLC, I write and produce music under five artist names: Minnesota Bob, Travis Rollins Jr., DGreatGnazzini, Conan Jahan III, and Reverend Paul. Each brings a distinct voice and personality to stories told through country, folk, rock, EDM and gospel.
My podcasts, produced through DGreatGnazzini Media LLC, bring those interests together in conversations about life, travel, music, books, and the unexpected things that make the world interesting. Whatever the medium, my goal is to entertain, spark curiosity, and give people something worth thinking—or smiling—about.
