Jonathan Lewis Seward, better known as Johnny Christ, was born November 18, 1984. Johnny was the fourth bassist to join A7X in 2002. Johnny went to Marina High School in Huntington Beach, California until he dropped out to fill the bassist spot. Johnny is said to be a unique guitarist, since he could pick up on the pace of a song quite quickly when he didn’t know it. Johnny first recorded on the band’s second album Waking the Fallen. Since the release of Nightmare, Johnny started to do more backup vocals, as well as screaming, on live shows.
