About This Site

This site shares John Schembari's original songs and writing. It is provided for personal enjoyment and information. John does not do concerts, live performances, or event bookings, and nothing on this site is an offer of professional services or advice.

Music, Writing & Ownership

The original songs, recordings, lyrics, writing, and the site name and branding are the property of John Schembari, who operates this site as I Am The American Dreamer, and are protected by copyright and other intellectual-property laws. Historical photographs on the site are public-domain U.S. government images shown as representative period imagery; song cover images are decorative, royalty-free stock photography. Neither is claimed as original work here, and the stock images remain subject to their own license terms.

You are welcome to stream the music, read the writing, and share links to this site. You may not copy, redistribute, sell, modify, sample, synchronize, or publicly perform the songs, recordings, or writing without prior written permission. To ask about permissions or licensing, email John@iamtheamericandreamer.com.
