About Jon Roniger

Jon Roniger's 2005 self-released album, My World, was critically acclaimed on college and international radio.

Often likened to Tom Petty, John Mellencamp and Paul Simon, Roniger crafts memorable toe-tapping songs with a balance of simple clarity, heartfelt honesty and soulful delivery. Offering a matter-of-fact and sometimes ironic look at life, his commentary on the world is born straight from his notebook and an acoustic guitar.

Jon recently moved from San Francisco to Nashville, where he continues to write, record and perform. He has quickly become a favorite on the coffeehouse and listening-room circuit. An exceptional storyteller, his songs take you on a fantastic joy ride.


News and Reviews

After the devastation that Hurricane Katrina wrecked upon his hometown of New Orleans, Jon Roniger can take heart that it's music like his that will bring smiles and laughter back to that ravished metropolis. Much like modern singer/songwriter David Gray, Jon Roniger explores alternative rock armed with his acoustic guitar and a well-traveled voice. His songwriting is superb and certainly shows off his Simon & Garfunkel influence. . . . Good stuff from a dynamic singer/songwriter with a brimming future ahead of him.

Drugs, alcohol, ADD, broken hearts, true love. How's that for honesty? Jon Roniger has got to be the most honest person I've heard in a while. As a singer/songwriter, he sure can put his feelings out on his sleeve. Sometimes those feelings are of joy, sometimes of hurt, and sometimes of longing. For added fun and a laugh, there's a reference to Spaceballs in the middle of all that. . . . With just a couple acoustic guitars, a piano, and a percussionist, this CD is musically simple and intense at the same time. Pure. A definite must have for fans of Bruce Cockburn, Charlie Peacock, or Paul Westerberg. The sweet backing vocals of Jeanette McNamara are a special treat. Rating: 4.5 out of 5.
