Bittersweet, upbeat and catching like you wouldn't believe, Jason's songs remain in your head and heart long after the last note is played.
In January of 2001, Jason Orr caught a flight to Paris with nothing but a couple of twenties in his pocket. Up to then he had written hundreds of songs, but his days on the streets of Paris were when, as he put it, he discovered himself in his music. Since then he has toured relentlessly, becoming known for his heart-felt and high-empact performances. Curently he is composing and recording music for the Animal Planet series, “Growing Up,” and has been sponsored by Asha to headline an upcoming benefit concert.
A songster with eminently singable tunes, even the sad songs put a smile on your face. Frequently compared to the vocal stylings of and Damien Rice, Ben Harper and Cat Stevens, and a songwriting style influenced by John Lennon, Bjork, Will Oldham and the Flaming Lips, Jason's music is instantly accessible and in a category of its own.
