From straight up country to something spacey and psychodelic. From a singer/songwriter vibe to ambient sounds to god knows where. From "whats making that sound" to "ahh... I love the sound of a pedal steel".
For many years, I've contributed to a varied array of artist's recording projects both in studios and on my home rig… as well as touring the world and countless club dates. I always look for the heart and soul of a piece of music and and apply what I have to offer in the most supportive way I can. I think my list of credits attest to my ability to that.
These credits include Willie Nelson, Norah Jones, Ryan Adams, Iris Dement, Phil Lesh, Cyndi Lauper, Noel Gallagher, Shooter Jennings, Carrie Underwood, Ron Sexsmith, Joan Osborne, David Byrne, Jonathan Wilson, Aaron Lee Tasjan, Neal Casal, Jaime Wyatt, Zephaniah Ohora, Duff McKagan, Dori Freeman, M. Ward, Hugh Masterson, Amy Allison, Laura Cantrell and many others.

Jon is as professional as they come. He will also bring your track/project to another level.
Would love to have him on future tracks!
check_circleVerifiedJon is timely, professional, creative, and a legend. I feel so honored to have him play on my songs. Given his talent, i let the steel lead the entire production that follows. I can't recommend enough.
check_circleVerifiedJon had been my fav steel player for some time. It was simply an amazing experience to have him play on my songs.
Despite being a virtuoso, he is down to earth, cool, and cares about what you’re looking for in a steel track.
My tracks are so great and I’m so happy I did this.
Turn around time was absurdly quick as well.
Thanks Jon! Looking forward to your next public endeavor.

Incredible talent and professionalism from start to finish. I would absolutely work with Jon again in the future, and I highly recommend considering him for your next project! He is a real artist through and through.
- check_circleVerified
Jon nailed exactly what I was looking for first take. Great tone, feel, and in complete service to the song. Couldn't have been an easier inspiring experience.
- check_circleVerified
Real pro, great sound, creative!
- check_circleVerified
Jon delivered a spectacular performance that actually brought tears to my eyes. Jon warned me to make sure I spelled out everything that I wanted him to do. I told Jon that I am of the mind set that I prefer musicians I work with to play not particularly what I want, but what they feel the song wants. Jon did exactly that, and I couldn't have hope for a better sound, a better feel or vibe. His communication was great. This guy is the real deal!
- check_circleVerified
What a player! Jon played on our acoustic song (not country) and he followed ambient chords and swells around the vocal perfectl; everything he played was classy and tasteful. We plan on using everything he played. Highest recommendation. Thanks Jon, E
I was the pedal steel player in this production
- Pedal SteelAverage price - $150 per song
From $150.
- I have a long list of vintage pedal steels and amplifiers. Acoustic & elec. guitars
- B-Bender guitar
- electric 12 string
- mandolin. A really nice recording setup. Analog front end into ProTools which delivers warm and full sounds.
