Concert Season is finally here!
Jon Lawton, one of the best Folk, Blues, Americana singer/songwriters you’ve never heard of …yet.
Writing, recording and performing for decades, Jon plays an always interesting blend of original and traditional blues, country and folk music on his National Steel, 6 & 12 strings and banjo.
With influences like Big Bill Broonzy, Brownie McGhee, John Lee Hooker, Hank Snow, Steve Earle, Pete Seeger, and Merle Haggard Jon’s old-style guitar and plaintively conversational vocal style have marked him as a modern songster who makes tradition come alive every time he performs.
Jon recently released his 11th CD, The Virginny Sessions vol. 1. as well as a collection of songs online called The Good Old Days featuring some fantastic original tunes.
Will be a definitive time- machine experience.
Jon has some great audio on Ytube.
