I'm a lucky dog who for the last few years has made my living making music. Its a trickle down sort of existence. Its not so much that i make vast piles of money and that there's any left at the end of the month to trickle down to others in the "republican trickle down economics model" sense....more so that it trickles in from a bunch of different places and no two months are the same. I've got three records of my own out that i tour to support. I play a lot of colleges in the Northwest and other festivals, wineries and clubs. I also tour as a side man for other artsits playing guitar, piano, singing- really whatever they need me to do. In the past few years i've had the privilege to tour with a wide variety of folks including Julio Iglesias Jr. (all in spanish...and they crowned me the honorary mexican in the group which coming from woodland california i took as a compliment...) Glen Phillips, Cindy Morgan and other various local bands and singersongwriters. I love doing that as much as i love playing my own songs and singing. Its a nice break to hide in the back and get to just play. I also built a small studio in Seattle and i engineer sessions and produce albums for folks who are looking to make an album when i'm not on the road. i bought a house in seattle. My younger brothers live in Seattle now too. in the fall you can find us on the river fishing for salmon.... I spend a good bit of time in Nashville these days writing and recording and i really love the town. there are so many amazing musicians and writers there it is a constantly humbling experience to be there and also a situation that challenges me to no end.

Hey Jon, Just stoppin by to say hi from one alumni to another SCC. Have a good day and let me if I can ever help with anything or just pick your brain for some songwriting production insight.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. The road to Success is not straight. There is a curve called Failure, a loop called Confusion, speed bumps called Friends, red lights called Enemies, caution lights called Family. You will have flats called Jobs. But, if you have a spare called Determination, an engine called Perseverance, insurance called Faith, a driver called Jesus, you will make it to a place called Success.
A love so sacred and divine. A love that I can now call mine. A love so beautiful, real and true. A love like you Lord, a love that is you. A love that nurtures, heals and cares. A love that speaks to me in tenderness and brings me to tears. A love that is free for all to cherish, and given by one so that none should perish. A love that strengthens me, as it draws me towards you. I witness your miracle an am cleansed anew. A love so kind as it fills my mind. I see your light and am no longer blind. A love for all time, a love that is mine. What a pleasure it is Lord, to love only you.

Jonathan, great show in Jersey last weekend! It was great to discover you! The album's great! I'm really diggin' it! It was nice meeting you! Happy touring!
Mr. Jonathan Kingham ! How goes it ? I've been a big fan since Montreat Youth Conference of 2008 when I had the chance to meet you and hear your music . Keep up the good work ! Maybe some time you'll make an appearance in Montgomery , Alabama ? Get a firsthand taste of that sweet Southern hospitality (:
I wasn't expecting you at last night's show. What a nice surprise treat! We are ready for a Kingham headliner in Annapolis. Work that into your life for us! Bring M.W. He's a pice of work as well.
