Born in the little town of Senekal in the Free State, his love for music started at a very young age, and when he was only four years old, his father gave him
a special gift – his very own guitar. The rest is history!
Along with his unbelievable singing talent, Jason not only plays the guitar, but
can also play drums, piano, base, trumpet and the accordion. His diverse talent
for music lead him to spend a few years in the UK, where he played and sang
in local pubs. He launched his come back to South Africa in 2003 by honing
his skills as a singer and guitar player, and by mastering the true art of
performing “Modern Country” styles.
