From touring the world with Huntertones and O.A.R., to performing nightly on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Jon brings a unique blend of skill, soul, and spirit to everything he does.

Most recently, he released his debut solo project, Night Service: Live at LunÀtico—a powerful, gospel-infused live album that channels the joy and energy of a church service into a transformative musical experience.
