Secondhand Serenade es un proyecto solitario compuesto por John Vesely, de Menlo Park, California, quién canta y toca la guitarra y el piano. Su música se compone de multipistas que, juntas, componen el sonido de una banda. El Nombre de la banda, Secondhand, se refiere a que su esposa, Candice, oye todas las canciones "de primera mano". Siendo así, para los oyentes de su música es la Serenata de Segunda mano (Secondhand Serenade).
En 2004, Vesely salió del grupo de rock alternativo Sounds Like Life

[Verse 1] C#mBE Didn't you want to hear the sound of all the C#m places we could go B Do you fear the expressions A on the faces we don't know BE It's a cold hard road when you wake up C#m and I don't think that I BA Have the strength to let you go
[Chorus] BE Maybe it's just me B/Eb Couldn't you believe C#m that everything I said and A did wasn't just deceiving BE And the tear in your eye B/Eb and your calm hard face C#m makes me wish that I was never BA brought into this place
[Verse 2] C#mBE There goes my ring It might as well C#m have been shattered B and I'm here to sing A about the things that mattered BE about the things that made us C#m feel alive for oh so long B about the things that kept you A on my side when I was wrong
[Chorus] BE Maybe it's just me B/Eb Couldn't you believe C#m that everything I said and A did wasn't just deceiving BE And the tear in your eye B/Eb and your calm hard face C#m makes me wish that I was never BA brought into this place
