This episode features singer/songwriter & poet Jon Brooks from Ontario.
Jon has strong opinions which he isn’t afraid to express in his music, indeed, that is the basis of his music. His style of music cannot be easily described. His songs can be complex and intense. He has called himself a folk singer and rejects the notion of labeling his songs as protest songs although his lyrics have many and diverse targets dealing with a broad spectrum of today’s societal problems.
We recorded Jon’s performance at his house concert in Haines Junction, Yukon Territory, in November 2017.
