About
Hi, I’m John Edgar Lewis. I was born in Austria in 1975 and have been working as a singer based in New York City since 2025. I sing the soulful piano-pop ballads of my best friend, songwriter and producer Wolfgang Ertl with deepest passion and plenty of emotion.

♫ Some Things Stay
Release Countdown
Austrian Legends
(Album 2026)
♫ Tyrol
Tyrol is a powerful, uplifting chapter from the 𝘈𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘯 𝘓𝘦𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴 series, inspired by the spirit of Tirol, the fight for freedom and the legacy of Andreas Hofer. A song about identity, resilience and the unbreakable bond between people and the land they call home.
♫ Wolschart
Wolschart is a dark, mystical chapter inspired by the legends of the Wolschart raiders and the shadowy forest they called home. Driven by deep male choirs, ancient tones and an eerie atmosphere, the song unfolds a story where the forest itself becomes witness, judge and memory.
♫ Lionheart
Lionheart is a cinematic chapter by the legend of Richard the Lionheart and Blondel at Dürnstein castle in the Wachau. This cinematic track blends medieval sounds with a modern pulse – a quiet, powerful reminder that music connects where nothing else can.
♫ Austria
Austria is an epic, cinematic journey through the story of a country shaped by history, struggle and resilience. From its darkest moments to its strongest rise, this song captures what it truly means to belong – not to a place, but to an identity that endures..
♫ St. Hemma
St. Hemma is a mystical and emotional chapter from the 𝘈𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘯 𝘓𝘦𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴 series, telling the story of Saint Hemma of Gurk. A journey through loss, strength and quiet resilience – where true power is not found in force, but in compassion, and where love emerges as the deepest answer to pain.
♫ Lindwurm
Lindwurm is an epic, cinematic retelling of the Klagenfurt Lindwurm legend. A story of fear, courage, and the rise of a city born from unity. Intimate verses grow into a powerful anthem of strength and destiny.
Prayers
(Singles 2025/2026)
♫ Ave Maria
Ave Maria reflects the moment when Mary receives the angel’s greeting. A gently beginning song that grows into an epic, deeply emotional climax. This song weaves together the “Hail Mary” prayer, the journey of Mary and Joseph seeking shelter in Bethlehem, and the birth of Jesus.
♫ The Lord’s Prayer
The Lord’s Prayer is a powerful, modern and completely individual take with the Carinthian Gospel Commanders inside an inspiring cathedral.
Emotions
(Album 2025)
♫ Forevermore
Forevermore is a heartfelt song with rap elements about lost time, healing scars, and a love that endures through silence and pain.
♫ Feel
Feel is more than a song. It’s a comeback of the heart. Hit play and feel (what real love sounds like).
♫ Iris
Iris is a tender love letter in melody. For those who found love where they never expected it, or perhaps after all.
♫ You Are The One
You Are The One is a hymn to the one who makes everything feel right. For everyone who found their forever.
♫ Let It Go
Let It Go is a song about pain, loss and the quiet courage to heal. For all the broken hearts out there. Played on warm piano in a cold world.
♫ Every Father Dies
Every Father Dies is not just about loss – it’s about legacy, love, and the courage to live fully while we can. It faces death & chooses love.
♫ Burning Bright
Burning Bright is a cheerful song that shows how quickly you can fall in love (again).
♫ Our Paradise
Our Paradise is a happy song about the course of life and is supposed to inspire you to recognize happiness it in the here and now.
