Artist
Jonas started playing music at an early age. Initially banging on pots and pans - but quickly moving on to guitar, bass, drums and a bit of piano. The greatest revelation to Jonas though, was when he discovered Stevie Wonder's album "Songs In The Key Of Life" in his fathers record shelves. Stevie landed on the recordplayer and created a big passion with singing. This passion has stayed with Jonas to great succes ever since. After having played in numerous bands during his teenage years, Jonas formed the soul band Jonz with 4 other talented musicians. After only 3 gigs, the band got signed to a worldwide deal with Sony Music. This lead to a tight working relationship with manager Keith Harris (Stevie Wonder, Omar, Lynden David Hall) and producer Pete Smith (Randy Crawford, Joe Cocker, Sting) making the critically acclaimed debut album "Where It's At". The single "Sleeping" was #1 on the national Danish airplay chart, and made waves in various parts of the world. Even Stevie Wonder was caught humming one of Jonas' songs, and said "when can I get my copy of the album?" After a couple of years Jonas parted ways with Jonz, and has since then been working on his own solo material. Besides this, he has been involved in countless projects on the side with other musicians, producers and songwriters all over the world. A.o. writing songs with the late Lynden David Hall; co-fronting the 17 piece soul collective Nu Soul Connexion; working as vocal-producer on many Danish albums. Th
