Jonathan started early on the piano and plays to this day. He also had a brief but passionate acquaintance with the cello. But that was a long time ago. More importantly, he was introduced to the works of great composers - Vaughan Williams, Villa Lobos, Gershwin - as a small child. As a young adult he discovered, through campus radio and small, struggling bars and cafes, great musicians working away in relative obscurity. He has received their works as selfless gifts and aspires to develop his craft with honesty and dedication, pursuing music appreciation more than accomplishment.

Jonathan est un chansonnier multilingue qui s’obstine à créer de la musique en français, même si les textes lui viennent plus facilement dans son anglais albertain. C’est dans les communautés francophones de l’ouest qu’il a connu ses formations en écriture et performance scénique les plus significatives. Il a participé aux festivals Gala Albertain de la Chanson d’Edmonton à deux reprises (lauréat 2006), et Chantouest à Winnipeg (2006) et a présenté ses chansons sur des petites scènes partout en Alberta. Ces jours-ci, il s’essaye aux scènes Ontariennes.
