Jon Day has been singing since he could talk and songwriting since age 12. His poignant, sometimes playful lyrics, always tell a story. Jon’s roots are in R&B and Soul, and his major influences include India Arie, Brian McKnight, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder. He is a true performer, combining song and dance with a charismatic charm, all inherited from his father.
Jon has a silky smooth style that effortlessly takes you on a different journey on each of his recordings. He completed his first solo project in Summer 2000, and immediately received accolades. His song, “What About Me” was awarded Honorable Mention in the 2000 John Lennon Songwriting Contest, as well as a Top Ten finish in the Tonos.com Blues Express Challenge in September 2001.
Recently, Jon was a finalist at the Bohemian Lounge R&B performance contest. He has completed a catalog of 14 original songs, including the original four songs he produced for his demo, and soon-to-be debut album, What About Me.
