John also revealed what happened when he visited the White House, “I have been in the Oval Office and we've been to their home a few times and performed. We actually performed when David Cameron came over for the state dinner and that was fun. We did it with Mumford and Sons, that was cool."

He revealed that this was more than just a passing visit to see the Obama's and told us, "We spend a lot of time with them. They’re really cool. They're like super smart, cool, elegant people that we were lucky to have lead the country for eight years."
