An improviser at heart from the mountains of North Carolina, Jonah Horton blends his wide array of influences such as Joni Mitchell, Sam Bush, John McLaughlin, Jaco Pastorius, and Béla Fleck to create his signature sound that is easily recognizable whether he is playing mandolin or bass. As a sideman, he has worked with John Cowan (Newgrass Revival, The Doobie Brothers), The Krüger Brothers, Joseph Henson (US Army Blues), Charles Billingsly, and Scott Vestal (Sam Bush Band). His love for performance, when paired with his passion for creating a unique fusion of folk, jazz, bluegrass, and Americana, make him an exciting artist for any music lover to enjoy.  You can keep up with Jonah and order his new album via his website HERE.
