John Edward Berry was born on September 14, 1959 in Aiken, South Carolina, to James and Marie Berry, and raised in the Atlanta, Georgia area. He was exposed to a variety of music, as his father preferred Van Cliburn, his mother had a strong taste for gospel. Berry grew up listening to an AM station from Atlanta; “It was on in dad’s garage constantly, WQXI 79 AM,” Berry says. “They played a pretty eclectic selection, country and Top 40 in the 1970s.”
Two years later, Berry started performing solo acoustic shows in northeast Georgia, then expanded around the southeast, building a strong name and following. He eventually made six self-produced albums, with the last one selling over 10,000 copies. He was finally signed to Liberty Records in 1992. Berry received high praise from former President George H.W. Bush and wife Barbara when she invited him to sing for Mr. Bush’s birthday party.

First was “A Mind of Her Own” at No. 55 on the Billboard country charts, followed by the No. 22 “Kiss Me in the Car”. With his first major album in the stores, Berry went on the road with a major concert tour opening for the likes of Reba McEntire, Aaron Tippin, and The Mavericks. After this came “Your Love Amazes Me”, which in 1994 became his only Number One hit on the Billboard charts. Following it were the No. 5 “What’s in It for Me” (originally the b-side to “Your Love Amazes Me”) and No. 4 “You and Only You”, the latter of which was also a Number One on the RPM country charts in Canada.
