JONOA
Jonoa is a multi-instrumentalist based in Sheffield. Having spent many years refining his craft for personal consumption, Jonoa felt a strong calling to share his creative process with the goal of spreading much needed joy and connection. First collaborating with Yarni, he co-wrote the track “Transitions”, which was playlisted on Jazz FM for 6 weeks. Since then, he has featured on the critically acclaimed “Boro” album which has been described as: “Just amazing music” (Tim Garcia/Jazz FM) and “Dreamy and gently groovy. Particularly easy to love” (Electronic Sound Magazine). Having expanded his repertoire to music production, he has stepped out on his own, forging live instrumentation with modular synthesis. Underpinned by an array of pedigree analogue synthesisers, dramatic improvised sax and live percussion he is creating his own unique sound inspired from a plethora of influences. He releases his solo material on Keep it Dirty Records, produces and collaborates on No Such Thing and has performed extensively across the jazz scene including Manchester Jazz Festival and Lancaster Jazz Festival.
