As a performer, Jonathan strives to bring artistry, passion, and joy to each performance. He works frequently with Atlanta area professional musicians and college professors as a freelance jazz musician. Jonathan also leads his own quartet which focuses on a mix of original compositions and arrangements while drawing on influences from the jazz tradition, funk, rock, folk, and some world music. Jonathan has performed at Spivy Hall, The Columbus Jazz Society, the Rialto Theater, the Atlanta Film Festival, Fete de la Musique in Toulouse, Paris, and many other stages across PA, GA, and AL. He can be heard on the Slippery Rock University Jazz Sextet’s debut album “Jump Start,” SRU Wind Ensemble’s “Give Us This Day,” and his website includes links to other free recordings.
Some notable artists Jonathan has worked with include George Cables, Grace Kelly, and Harold Betters (Louis Armstrong, Slide Hampton, Ray Charles). While a student at GSU and SRU, Jonathan had the honor of performing with Mike Abene, Joey DeFrancesco, Bobby Shew, Donny McCaslin, Jerry Bergonzi, and Joe Negri (Mister Rogers Neighborhood) to name a few.
