On May 23rd Jon took to Facebook to announce that he had been asked to join The Beach Boys for their summer tour by John Stamos.
He writes:
“Hey everybody! Just a bit ago I was preparing for another rock ‘n’ roll summer in Seattle… but God had other plans! With the help of the incredibly generous and epically cool John Stamos, I’ve been invited to join The Beach Boys starting with their summer tour!!!!!! It is the blessing of a lifetime to get to play these beautiful songs I grew up admiring, with some of the kindest people and most talented musicians I’ve had the privilege to meet. Thank you, Mike Love and Jacquelyne Love, band and crew, for welcoming me to #TheBeachBoys family!”
About Jon:
As the lead singer and/or drummer in a number of bands, Jon is famous for his wild stage presence, zany antics, celebrity impersonations, humor, and the unique ability to do all of this while maintaining a steady beat and delivering an eclectic style of entertainment. In addition to drums, Jon also plays the guitar, bass guitar, and piano. In his spare time, he likes to write and arrange original music and perform with his local church. You can catch Jon performing with different groups such as The Beatniks, Epic Queen, Stella, Beasts of Burden, Apple Jam and others but you are most likely to see him on a Sunday night in downtown Kirkland, WA with the Herding Cats. Jon is pretty much a pop music encyclopedia, therefore he can improvise almost any request. Not only does he have thousands of songs in his repertoire but he can tell you the innermost details about those songs, the artists, and the trends supporting their eras.
