Hey all
So, I probably should mention I now live in New York City. It's been a while now, and I'm making it official. To all my Portland friends, I miss you and I'll see you again soon. In other news, my record is getting some airplay and even registered on the Freeform Americana Charts this November. I'm in the midst of a radio campaign, so hopefully I'll be back up on those charts again soon. Also, my record was picked up by Miles of Music, a really cool internet record store. Please hit the Miles of Music button on my Records page and take a look-see. Finally, I got some nice press a while back from Cheezeball.net, which you can see in the press section.

I'm cooking up a new band and playing shows in New York, so keep your eye out for me. Happy New Year!

Jon

Hello world. Welcome to my new website. It was designed by Portland's amazing Dylan McConnell. For more info about him, email me and i'll tell you. And if you'd like to be included on my mailing list, email me and i'll tag you on there. Hell, email me and tell me your life story if you want. Or just say hello.

In other news, I released my second record, "Big Gold Guitar in the Sky" in March. It's gotten some great reviews, which I'm really proud of. You can see them in the "Press" section of this site. As more come in I will continue to post them. Please check out the record, listen to the free tracks on the "Albums/Words" page, and buy it from your preferred retailer. The record is being picked up by Burnside Distribution, which means it will soon be available in finer CD stores across the nation. Keep your eyes peeled.

Also, I'm headed out on a tour throughout the West Coast and a good part of the U.S. late this spring, so spread the word.... The venues and dates are available at www.myspace.com/jonitkin
