During the pandemic Jon used the time to write, produce and record a brand-new soul album which he released in 2024. Now Jon is back on the road promoting his new album and is currently touring through Europe.

He has already released three albums independently that show his diversity within the genres of Blues, Folk and Soul music. Whilst he draws influence from older artists such as, Muddy Waters, Al green and Bob Dylan, he is also inspired by contemporary artists who explore a more vintage sound. Artists such as, Alabama Shakes, The Teskey Brothers, Gary Clark Jr and Leon Bridges. Jon's new album might be his most homogeneous one so far, as he explores a closer fusion of genres in order to give the album, 'Silent Applause' its own sound and identity.
