JOHN MELLENCHAMP TICKETS

John J Mellencamp, previously known as Johnny Cougar, John Cougar, and John Cougar Mellencamp, is an American musician, singer-songwriter, painter, and actor. He is known for his catchy, populist brand of heartland rock, which emphasizes traditional instrumentation.

Mellencamp rose to fame in the 1980s while "honing an almost startlingly plainspoken writing style that, starting in 1982, yielded a string of Top 10 singles," including "Hurts So Good," "Jack & Diane," "Crumblin' Down," "Pink Houses," "Lonely Ol' Night," "Small Town," "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.," "Paper in Fire" and "Cherry Bomb." He has amassed 22 Top 40 hits in the United States.

In addition, he holds the record for the most tracks by a solo artist to hit number one on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, with seven. Mellencamp has been nominated for 13 Grammy Awards, winning one. Mellencamp released his latest album, Sad Clowns & Hillbillies, on April 28, 2017, to widespread critical acclaim.

John Mellencamp abruptly cancelled his June 2016 tour of Australia. Seven dates were set for his Plain Spoken Tour but they were pulled off the schedule for no offcial reason. Mellencamp’s website simply says “The John Mellencamp “Plain Spoken Tour” that was scheduled for June is cancelled. All tickets will be automatically refunded. This came after Mellenchamp cancelled his February 2016 dates. Poor form John.
