(Tot Rock) Billy Jonas November 19, 2011

Throw out the rules when Billy Jonas hits the stage! It's a musical conversation... a sonic celebration ... a splendiferous gathering of old and young, because at a Billy Jonas show, the ensemble is... everyone. Billy Jonas is one of those rare performers who can engage and delight both young and adult audiences. He helps audiences discover the music within common items ... and within themselves. Billy Jonas' recordings and live concerts across the US and Canada have generated an enthusiastic following.

Billy Jonas' music is percussion-based, making use of found objects (buckets, broom handles, bottles, key chains and more) as well as traditional instruments. But on any given day, the specific nature of this unforgettable neo-tribal hootenanny is largely determined and shaped by the audience. He tailors both his song selection and its presentation to suit the needs and vibe of each audience. So every Billy Jonas concert is a unique experience. He makes spirited, straightforward music that is accessible to anyone and everyone, regardless of age or cultural background. The big-tent festival quality of Billy's music facilitates connection and community while fostering inspiration and... most importantly... FUN.

Billy Jonas has shared stages with many renowned artists, including Patti Larkin, Ani DiFranco, David Wilcox, Richard Thompson, and Pete Seeger. His upbeat, engaging presence (both onstage and off) encourages active audience participation. His concerts are a magical mix of stagecraft and wholesome, open-ended, anything-can- happen spontaneity.
