John Wetton (12. juni 1949–31. januar 2017) var ein engelsk låtskrivar, songar, bassist og gitarist. Wetton var profesjonell musikar sidan slutten av 1960-talet og var medlem i kjende rockegrupper som Mogul Thrash, Family, King Crimson (der han jobba med barndomsvenen Robert Fripp), Roxy Music, Uriah Heep, UK, Wishbone Ash og Asia.


I Wishbone Ash vart han henta inn for å erstatte bassist og vokalist Martin Turner og påtenkt rolla som rein bassist. Gruppa hadde allereie då nærast fullført studioinnspelinga av albumet Number the Brave, så difor song han berre på ein song. Wetton vart desillusjonert over det han oppfatta som ein status som studiomusikar, spesielt med tanke på at han er vurdert som ein respektert bassist, songar og låtskrivar. Rett før turnéen starta forlét han Wishbone Ash og grunnla gruppa Asia saman med Geoff Downes, Steve Howe og Carl Palmer. MCA Records avbraut samarbeidet med gruppa som eit resultat av dette. John Wetton sa i ettertid:


  • «Eg trur at viss eg fekk lov til å skrive og synge opp mot den fulle kapasiteten min, ville Number the Brave vorte ei veldig god utgjeving. Den kjensla eg hadde på den tida var at dei ikkje ville ha nokre til å ta over der Martin Turner slutta».

Wetton var mest kjent for det kraftfulle basspelet og improvisajonsteknikkane sine, men utgjevingane hans sidan 1980-talet har vore meir kommersielt orientert. I nyare tid har fokuserte han meir på vokal og låtskriving, der han favoriserte akustisk gitar og piano. Høgdepunkta hans blant utgjevingar er King Crimson-albumet Larks' Tongues In Aspic (1972) og Asia-albumet med same namn frå 1982, som òg er det mest selde albumet hans. John Wetton jobbar siste delen av livet som soloartist etter at han forlét Asia for andre gongen i 1992, men var i seinare medlem av bandet att.
