Degrees of jamification: Jonathan has been studying various instruments since 2002. A natural talent, he’s mastered the guitar and is always looking to expand his repertoire and skills. He currently works as a singer/songwriter, bandleader and composer and his recent single, “Alien Nights” has made it into rotation on Boston’s 92.5 FM The River.

Favorite jams: According to Jonathan, he enjoys “Almost everything in some capacity, but rock, jazz fusion, progressive metal, and late 90's early 2000's bubblegum pop have been high in my rotation recently.”

How Jonathan jams with you: Jonathan believes that students learn best when they can develop an emotional connection to whatever is being taught. He seeks to find whatever it is that triggers that emotional connection in any given student and uses that as a gateway to the broader material.
