Secondhand Serenade es el proyecto personal del cantante y compositor John Vesely, nacido el 5 de febrero de 1982 en Menlo Park, California. Antes de adentrarse en el mundo de la música como solista, Vesely estuvo involucrado en varias bandas locales, donde cumplió roles como bajista y cantante. Sin embargo, fue durante estos años formativos que descubrió su verdadera pasión: la guitarra acústica, que se convertiría en su principal herramienta de expresión artística.
El nombre "Secondhand Serenade" tiene una historia interesante detrás. Vesely lo escogió para sugerir que sus canciones eran serenatas indirectas a su audiencia. Originalmente, eran dedicadas a su entonces esposa, pero con cada interpretación y grabación, el público recibía una serenata de segunda mano. Esta idea encajaba perfectamente con la forma íntima y emotiva de su música.
En 2007, Secondhand Serenade lanzó su primer álbum, Awake. Grabado de manera independiente, este disco es básicamente un conjunto de canciones acústicas cargadas de emociones crudas y honestas. Temas como “Vulnerable” y “Your Call” se convirtieron rápidamente en favoritos de los fans, mientras que la plataforma MySpace ayudó significativamente en su promoción. El éxito de Awake no pasó desapercibido y llevó a Vesely a firmar con la discográfica Glassnote Records.
El segundo álbum de Secondhand Serenade, A Twist in My Story, lanzado en 2008, catapultó a Vesely

I left you to cry
I left when you were weak
I had no words to softly speak
I left you with a pain and undefined
I was not myself
Believe inside that I had no more life in me its true
And all my soul I gave to you
Im empty man who lost his way
And i will search to find those words for you
And you drive me crazy, you make me mad
I forget the good times that we had
But you are irreplaceable to me
And Ill tell you things you never knew
Ill turn your skies from grey to blue
But you are irreplaceable to me
When you call Im here but we always fight
You say that I am never right
I say those hurtful things to you
But the pain you feel, I feel it to
You drop to your knees and start to cry
But I will take the blame this time
And you drive me crazy, you make me mad
I forget the good times that we had
But you are irreplaceable to me
And Ill tell you things you never knew
Ill turn your skies from grey to blue
But you are irreplaceable to me
And I hope you realize what you have
Cause I tried to give you all I had
But its over now, its over now
And i wish that you were in my arms
Its a feeling Ive felt from the start
But its over now, its over now, its over now
Drive me crazy, make me mad
Forget the good times
But you are irreplaceable to me
And Ill tell you things you never knew
Ill turn your skies from grey to blue
But you are irreplaceable to me
And you drive me crazy, you make me mad
I forget the good times that we had
But you are irreplaceable to me
And Ill tell you things you never knew
Ill turn your skies from grey to blue
But you are irreplaceable to me
You are irreplaceable to me
You are irreplaceable
