John Jones' whole life has been centered around music. He heard The Beatles and Rufus & Chaka Khan from the time he was born. He had his first record player at age two. His first records? Not Mary Had a Little Lamb or Sesame Street.try The Ronettes, Beach Boys, and Heart. He started studying piano at age nine. After a pre-teen fling with Top 40 pop, he discovered R&B and jazz in high school, and shifted his piano training to classical. His 20's and 30's led him to electronica as well as the singer-songwriter movement of the 60's and 70's. These days, his influences are so varied, the best genre John can come up with for his music is.well, "music."



After the triumphs of R&B diva Maysa recording his ballad "Everything" for her 2002 album "Out of the Blue" and John's hip-hop/jazz hybrid "Honeybee" on 2010's "A Woman in Love," John began recording his own albums. 2006's "Homegrown" finds John in a confessional, singer/songwriter frame of mind, while 2010's "Shine Right Where You Are" puts the emphasis on heavy beats and soulful harmonies. Both albums are available on iTunes, Amazon, and cdbaby.com.
