McClellan was born in Payson, Utah Territory. By the age of eleven McClellan was serving as a church organist in Payson. McClellan's father, also John J. McClellan, served as mayor of Payson from 1887 to 1890.
In 1891, McClellan went to Saginaw, Michigan, where he studied under Albert W. Platte.[4] He then went to the Ann Arbor Conservatory where he studied under Johann Erich Schmaal. He also studied with Alberto Jonas while there. He served as organist of St. Thomas Catholic Church while in Ann Arbor. He also served as pianist of the Ann Arbor Choral Union.
In 1896, McClellan returned to Utah where he taught music at LDS College and at Brigham Young Academy (the forerunner of Brigham Young University). It was during this time that McClellan married Mary Douglass. They eventually became the parents of five children.[2][4] He also served as the pianist for the Salt Lake Opera Company.
In 1899, McClellan went to Berlin, Germany where he studied with Xaver Scharwenka and Ernest Jedliczka. While in Berlin, McClellan edited and published a new edition of the LDS hymnal in German.
McClellan became the organist of the Salt Lake Tabernacle in 1900. In this capacity, he accompanied the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and inaugurated the free weekly organ recitals at the tabernacle.
In the 1985 English edition of the LDS hymnal, the music for 'Sweet Is the Work' (hymn #147) was composed by McClellan.
