Jonathan is currently gigging at various venues across Sunshine Coast and South East Qld, working as solo artist, also working with a duo called ‘ Kikin Bak' and at times a band.

Jonathan began his musical journey at 21 years of age at the passing of his father who was an inspiration. He was also a singer songwriter.  Jonathan picked up his guitar and began his song writing journey and began touring Brisbane and Queensland.  In 1988 Jonathan was chosen to represent an Australian team of musicians to tour Qld alongside a Canadian team. This was a great experience where he built lifelong relationships with Canadian musicians. Eric Boorman, the Canadian drummer on that tour features on 'Our Land' and Fields of Plenty singles.

Jonathan plans to continue working with people who have helped with these projects and bring more songs life with the help of Angus Woodhead director and producer at Glasshouse Studios.

'Our Land' the first single is followed by 'Fields of Plenty' another favorite that depicts our country, the lucky country, so much wealth yet so many living in poverty across the globe. What are we doing to help, there is so much more to do than just pray.

"Although only knowing Jonathan for a few months, I have been impressed by his song writing ability. I finished off the recording and mixed 'Our Land' and am very happy with the end result. I commend Jonathan to you" Quote from Angus Woodhead. Producer / Engineer, Glasshouse Studios.
