John Haggerty

Punk rock guitarist from Chicago, IL. He joined Naked Raygun in late 1983 after the release of their first EP, "Basement Screams" (on which he made a guest appearance playing saxophone), initially playing alongside founding guitarist Santiago Durango before Durango's departure to focus on Big Black. Haggerty remained with Naked Raygun until late 1989 when, frustrated over the band's lack of commitment to extensive touring and the role NR vocalist Jeff Pezzati's wife played in managing the band, he quit and formed Pegboy. He has since declined any invitation in making a reunion appearance with Naked Raygun, although Pegboy has, upon occasion, performed some Naked Raygun songs live.

John is the older brother of Pegboy drummer Joe Haggerty.
