Jonathan is a tremendously versatile guitarist, equally at home performing playing Brazilian music, jazz, musical theatre, classical music or baroque concertos.

Trained at Leeds College of Music and Trinity College of Music, Jonathan's career has taken him from Japan to the Amazon, and from the studios of Abbey Road to the stage of the Albert Hall.

Alongside his other musical activities the last few years have seen Jonathan specialising in authentic Brazilian 7-string guitar and he is one of the most sought-after guitarists on the UK Brazilian music scene, playing with artists including Monica Vasconcelos, Henrique Cazes, Rogerio Souza, Dirceu Leite and Paraiso School of Samba.

Jonathan’s live credits include London Philharmonic Orchestra [Lord of the Rings Symphony, Royal Albert Hall], Warehouse Ensemble [Boulez in Birmingham 2008] and Zorro the Musical [Garrick Theatre, London 2008]. Broadcasts include BBC Radio 2's "Friday Night Is Music Night". Recordings include "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" and Aled Jones' "The Christmas Album".

Jonathan is also an arranger and orchestrator with credits including live and recorded arrangements for Michael Ball, Aled Jones and Mitch Winehouse.
