Jon Hart | Online Acoustic Concerts Full Description
“Raises the bar to impressive heights” David Sinclair – Rock and Pop Critic for The Times. UK singer-songwriter Jon Hart blends modern percussive fingerstyle guitar with emotive/gritty vocals and songwriting to create an awesome one-man acoustic experience. Although his technical abilities could be compared to the likes of Jon Gomm, Newton Faulkner and Petteri Sariola, he offers something distinctive in this small pool of virtuoso acoustic guitarist-singers. As one fan put it 'You have to see it to believe it'. The sole purpose for all Jon's compositions and arrangements, is to emulate them live. He does this with just one acoustic guitar and a vocal harmony pedal (to generate harmonies of his voice and a megaphone effect) without the use of a loop pedal. Jon has received critical acclaim from across the acoustic guitar world with his debut album ‘Reborn’ (co-produced by Chris Woods Groove), fingerstyle-folk album 'Set Adrift' with Daryl Kellie and three EPs ‘Defuse’, ‘Sticks & Stones’ and ‘Momento’ (the latter produced by Declan Zapala). He has toured throughout the UK and Europe with performances at Isle of Wight Festival, London Acoustic Guitar Show, The Turner Sims Concert Hall, The Red Theater (Italy)and Ullapool Guitar Festival where he co-headlined with fingerstyle legend Preston Reed. In 2019, Jon released his 3rd album 'Annual' along with a UK tour with fingerstyle and classical prodigy Billy Watman. He also went to Brescia to finalise his 4th album, which will be a 'Live in Italy' CD-DVD. Watch for new live videos every month up until the release in spring 2020. “Amazing” Genevieve Tudor’s Sunday Folk, BBC

The 5* reviews are well deserved!

We had the pleasure of Jon doing 2X 45min sets at our wedding March 2nd 2019 in between the ceremony & dinner- he’s super friendly, incredibly talented and created the perfect atmosphere. Would recommend him to anyone as would all of our guests who were raving about him the rest of the day. Russell & Julia

Exceptional talent!

We viewed dozens of musicians when looking to book a live act for our wedding, but as soon as we saw a video of Jon performing it was a no-brainer decision! His unique style set him head and shoulders above the rest, and he certainly delivered on our big day! Learning a song outside his repertoire to perform as part of his set for us was an exceptional and welcome touch. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with and would advise anyone looking for a live musician to look no further!

Wedding set with personal song

Recently had jh play at our wedding and he was amazing. He did a cover of a song not within his usual set list for our first dance and absolutely nailed it. Also his set list is so varied we managed to find at least 1 song all pf our guests liked. Would highley recommend for any party or event.

Talented and lovely!

Jon was the perfect choice for our wedding. We had him playing during our drinks reception and wedding breakfast and he added such a wonderful layer of atmosphere. His voice is beautiful and his skills on the guitar are mind blowing! Jon arranged a new song for the occasion which made it all the more personal. Friendly, warm and polite he feels like one of the guests - we got so much amazing feedback for him. Highly recommend Jon (in case that wasn’t clear!)

Jon is a truly talented musician.

Jon and his music were a unique and exciting highlight at my Son and Daughter-in-law’s Wedding at Oaks Farm. He is extremely talented and I think every guest was enthralled and delighted by his performance.

Jon's performance was amazing!!

Jon played at our wedding in London last September. He is an incredibly talented musician and his performance was amazing!! Everybody loved it, my husband and I in first place. It was the perfect accompaniment to our reception!! We deeply appreciate his friendliness and professionalism all throughout the process. We encourage anyone who might be reading this not only to hire him but also to check out his own music, which is REALLY good. Super-recommended!!!

Amazing performer!

I attended two weddings this year where Jon played and he provided the perfect musical entertainment. In one he played the drinks reception and his music was beautiful yet atmospheric - we were able to talk and listen! In the second wedding he played a gorgeous version of the first dance song and got us all up and dancing! So much fun and obviously versatile!!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

During a wedding breakfast a photographer transferred a selection of photos to a digital collage frame and presented it to the couple and family members. He was able to move around the photos and add new ones there and then.
