heartfelt storytelling with memorable melodies and soaring, anthemic arrangements. Based in
Dublin, Jon has spent years establishing himself as one of Ireland’s most versatile live performers,
entertaining audiences at festivals, theatres, weddings and corporate events before turning his
focus to original music.
His debut album, The Lines We Draw, showcases a songwriter unafraid to tackle deeply personal
themes. From family, love and friendship to grief, resilience and the lasting impact of history, Jon’s
songs are rooted in real experiences and written with honesty at their core. His music has drawn
comparisons to artists such as Lewis Capaldi, Glen Hansard and Damien Rice while maintaining a

each reflecting Jon’s gift for turning life’s defining moments into songs that resonate with audiences.
Away from performing and recording, Jon is also a passionate music educator. He teaches piano,
guitar and songwriting to students of all ages and is committed to helping the next generation of
musicians develop both their skills and confidence. Throughout the year he runs popular teenage
band camps, where young musicians come together to rehearse, perform and experience what it’s
like to play in a real band. These camps have become known for building musicianship, teamwork
and a genuine love of live performance.
Jon has built an outstanding reputation as a live performer, appearing at festivals including
Kaleidoscope, entertaining at IRFU and Ryder Cup events, and performing hundreds of weddings
and private events across Ireland. Whether performing solo at the piano or fronting a full band, his
passion for connecting with audiences has made him one of Ireland’s most sought-after musicians.
