This song isn’t a song at all.  This is a preview of an entire album.  These songs are by a great friend of mine, and Four Minute Story supporter, Jonathan Jones.  Long story short, we met in San Diego. Our bands went to Japan together.  We became great friends.  And recently I’ve been fortunate enough to do a great deal of photography for Jonathan in promotion for his new album. Details regarding that aspect of my life will be found on my personal blog, which I won’t get into here.  This site is about people.  In this case, Jonathan has supported Four Minute Story, and in exchange I am proud to share his music with you guys!

Every song has a story. Whether it’s about love (good or bad), or trials, or adventure, or nothing at all.  It’s all a story. Knowing Jonathan for more years than I can remember, I’ve heard a lot of his stories.  He is an innovator, an artist, a surfer, a friend.  When I hear this medly of songs, I can’t help but think about how this album is the album of his life.  In his Waking Ashland days, you hear songs of high school heartbreak, and the excitement of growing up.  With We Shot the Moon, you hear that a lot of the growing up has happened, and there is hope for the future.  Now with his new endeavor as a solo artist, Jonathan Jones is writing songs you can live to.  They bring you in, and make you feel. You are right there with him.  I can’t say enough good things about these songs.  All I can say is that you need to do yourself a huge favor and listen to this medley.  Once you do, you’ll want to get the album (and selfishly, I want you to get the posters … or the bundle, because it comes with a one of a kind photo that I took … never to be printed again!).

So there, the links are in the story above.  Start clicking and please let me know what you think of this guy.
