Formed in the early 70's at Central College in Pella IA, this band was an unlikely blend of five guys from all corners of the country.  But somehow the chemistry just worked.  From 1970-1974, the band entertained at campus venues such as Rap (the coffee house in the basement of the Student Union) and Douwstra Auditorium.  They also also released a self-titled LP, performed at private parties, conventions (i.e. the Iowa Funeral Directors and Embalmers Assoc.) and weddings.  

After a 30 year hiatus, in September 2004 the band reunited for a reunion concert at Central College Homecoming.  During that reunion, the band members discussed the idea of getting together for a recording project to benefit the Songs of Love Foundation.  In June of 2005 the band met in Arlington TX where they wrote special uplifting songs for two chronically ill children.  

From this an annual tradition was born.  Since 2005, each summer, the members of Third Floor John volunteer their time and talents, converging from all over the country to write and record two Songs of Love for medically challenged kids.
