"Jon played the guitar and the piano at a conference reception that we organised at the Romans Bath. His choice of music and the excellent quality of his performance made the evening very special for us and our guests. His exceptional qualities as an artist were matched by the professionalism that he showed in communication and arrangements before and after the event. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wishes to make their event stand out."

Meet the Act

I have been performing musician since I was 5 years old. Professionally since 16. I have played everything from piano in bars, to guitars in rock bands. These days I specialise in Classical / Spanish guitar and jazz piano, but can play a wide range of pop music too and am very versatile. I also design unusual instruments (23 string 'harp-guitars'), compose and perform on them.
