Bio
With over twenty years of experience, Jon has found himself in over a dozen different states and six different countries, playing a vast array of music to a wide variety of audiences. From symphony halls in Europe to summer stock theatre in New Hampshire, the Telluride Jazz Festival in Colorado to house bands at amusement parks, Jon brings a musical maturity beyond his years, and the humor of those half his age.
About
Originally trained in classical double-bass, Jon picked up the electric bass at the request of a jazz band director in high school. In college, Jon dabbled in funk, rock, jazz, Dixieland...pretty much anything that kept him playing. Combining genres has given Jon a unique voice on the instrument, the ability to sit in the background and fully support the style he is performing, and yet keep a whimsical attitude present in every note he plays. One thing remains constant however; Jon loves to play music - period.
Currently residing in Kalamazoo, Jon is a Warwick Endorsing Artist and a freelance musician in the West Michigan area, playing for whoever asks first. Jon can also be heard at Unity Church of Kalamazoo every Sunday and supporting regional folk act Patricia Pettinga. His spare time includes finishing his solo album, sitting in on various local jam sessions, working full time as a production art coordinator and most importantly making sure his wife doesn't forget him.
