Music in the Cafe: Jon Hart + Oli Tong
Event Information
Description
"Raises the bar to impressive heights" - David Sinclair, Rock & Pop critic for The Times
Jon Hart is an absolutely INCREDIBLE vocalist and guitarist known for his finger style picking, alternate timings and loop station and is becoming one of the capital’s hottest acoustic talents; an astute musician who merges virtuoso guitar with catchy vocal harmony and beat-boxing. Writing, arranging and performing his own songs is central to Jon’s philosophy as an artist. He is also the front-man for experimental electronic rock bandOpinaut.
"A terrifically accomplished musician" - Pete Donaldson, Absolute Radio

Jon is only the second UK artist to join the roster at Acus, Proel's range of professional quality electro-acoustic guitar amplifiers and is delighted to join a decorated roster of artists with Roland UK, ranging from best-selling artist David Bowie, international pop musician Ed Sheeran to virtuoso finger-style guitarist Jon Gomm.
Jon will make his debut at the London Acoustic Guitar Show on September 13th. Alongside songs from his EP's 'Defuse' and 'Sticks and Stones', Jon will take to the Acoustic Cafe stage in the Olympia Conference Centre to premiere his brand new single 'Wind Chime', which will be released as a single ahead of the event.
