Jon’s journey began on the Isle of Wight, where his passion for music led him to become a lead guitarist and frontman in the local scene. With a desire to expand his musical knowledge, Jon crossed the waters to study at the University of Southampton, earning a BA honours degree. His commitment to his craft has seen him perform at weddings, parties, and with various original bands, acoustic duos, and a cappella choirs, extensively touring the UK, Europe, and the USA. Jon’s professional musicianship and DIY artistry have taken him to the far reaches of the globe.
Over the years, Jon has had the privilege of working with outstanding producers such as Albert Penheiro (Turin Brakes, The Optimist) and Luther Grosvenor (Ariel Bender, Mott the Hoople), as well as film director and producer Jez Larder (David Bowie, Simply Red, Estelle). His move from the Isle of Wight to the vibrant cityscape has been a journey of determination and grit, much like trekking from The Shire to Mordor. Jon’s unique musical style and professional dedication continue to shine, making him a true artist to watch.
