Shortly thereafter, he delved into songwriting, discovering a passion for telling stories and giving voice to his experiences and emotions. Jason's music is woven from a diverse array of influences, reflecting the melting pot of sounds that is Chicago. Drawing inspiration from folk, Americana, classic rock, southern rock, outlaw country, classic country, blues, gospel, and more, his songs reflect the depth and breadth of his musical upbringing. In addition to his solo work, Jason is part of the duo Echo and Ransom with Colleen Wild, plays the guitar with Matt Derda & the High Watts and Michelle McCarthy, and regularly collaborates with others on stage and in the studio. ~~~~~~~~~~ ~ The Venue is brought to you by Fox Valley Music Foundation, dedicated to local music awareness, education and preservation. themusicvenue.org ~~~~~~~~~~
