Based out of Victoria, B.C.... In 2005, Jon recorded an independent release with former band-mate Roy Vizer entitled 'Sittin' Back.' A year later, Jon released his second recording,'After a Trip' a collection of songs written during and after a 4 month venture across the sea.
Jon, along with Roy, has just completed a new cd entitled 'Another Noon' which will be released in early February. The album consists of 15 new tunes.
