   About Jon Amor
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting ..> In the early nineties, from a tiny village in deepest darkest Wiltshire, UK, there came forth a band with fire in its belly and blues in its heart, and that band was called The Hoax. One of its four key members was Jon Amor, a long, lean guitar player who, along with his cohorts, toured the UK, Europe and the USA for eight years until the group disbanded in 1999, with four successful albums and a string of awards to its name. Since then, Jon has taken on the role of frontman with his band AMOR and established himself as a singer and songwriter in his own right, releasing two highly acclaimed and influential albums and giving the British blues rock scene a much-needed kick up the backside. Jon disbanded AMOR in 2005 and made the final leap into solo performance with a string of unique acoustic gigs. He also recorded a brand new album Unknown Soldier which is set for release on May 2nd and features guest performances from Led Zep legend Robert Plant and renowned tub-thumper Clive Deamer of Portishead and Roni Size fame.

The new songs are sounding great, hurry up August 1st.
Am I imagining it, or have you changed the song title?... Wasn't it the Lioness before?
Good work anyway, I like them a lot. x

I love the video of If You Were Me (And I Were You)! Takes me back to when I saw you at Brock. Do you have any recordings of your solo stuff? I have your Unknown Soldier album, which I love, but when I saw you play by yourself with the loop pedal it totally blew my mind.

Hi there fellow musicians,
as you probably know it..s been getting harder and harder to get a gig nowadays.

You have it in your power to help us get one for we have entered a contest for wich we need a lot of votes.

Here..s wat you (hopefully) do;

go to www.gideonfestival.nl
choose band contest
scroll down to henderson
click STEM

That..s all and it will take you about 10 seconds. It would really mean a lot to us!!

Thanx and keep the live music alive
