About
Few people are fortunate enough to know exactly what they want to do with their life. When Jonathan Clay picked up the guitar, he knew there was no going back. What started as a hobby, soon turned in to something nobody would have predicted. Now, with a national tour under his belt, and the release of his second independent album, the future is looking good for this Texas native.
Born and raised in the Houston area, Jonathan grew up with musical influences surrounding him. At 15, His father let him borrow a guitar, which Jonathan soon claimed as his own, carrying it to school every day and cutting class to practice. Feeling driven to create something original, he started writing songs as soon as he could make chords on the guitar. At 18, Jonathan moved to Austin, a city rich with culture. It was here, that he started to pave the way with local performances, and independent recordings. His debut release, "Whole New Me", was recorded by a friend and garnered quite a bit of attention. With only seven tracks, this was just a glimpse of the young, developing singer/songwriter. Songs from "Whole New Me" landed spots in numerous independent films, and nationally broadcast television series.
Jonathan recently finished recording his second independent release, "Back To Good" (July 2007). This collection of songs shows the growth, maturity, and a little more of what's to come from this developing artist. Currently residing in New York City, Jonathan is working on new material, and developing his craft.
