John Scott
Vocal
John Scott’s first encounter with AC/DC was nothing short of electrifying. When he saw Whole Lotta Rosie performed live, he sat up and asked himself, “Who the hell are these guys?” Years later, after watching the Thunderstruck live video, he was completely hooked. That moment sparked a lifelong passion for the band’s raw power, energy, and attitude. As the frontman of AD/CD, John channels the spirit of Bon Scott and Brian Johnson, delivering high-voltage performances that bring the legendary AC/DC experience to life. With a voice that cuts through like a Gibson SG through a Marshall stack, he leads the charge, keeping the crowd on their feet and fists in the air.

Founder and leader of AD/CD.He got an SG when he was in high school. He started playing guitar after being excited by a video of AC/DC's live performance at the Golders Green Hippodrome in 1977. He has studied everything from Angus Young's guitar playing to his performance, and his playing excites the hearts of all audiences!
Malcolm Takagi
