Jonah McLean embodies the spirit of past and future experiences with songs that take the listener on an emotional journey. He draws on passions, pains, and pleasures that life has to offer, evoking the bittersweet accumulated moments that pull on the heartstrings to try and provide a glimpse into the feelings we all go through while exploring our inner-most thoughts.
Influenced by the Laurel Canyon singer-songwriter scene in 1960’s California, Jonah combines this vintage feel with his own modern elements. Simple, yet complex, whimsical, yet measured, Jonah follows wherever the ideas lead to create his introspective and signature sound.
Getting back to my roots and beginnings with just acoustic guitars, light percussion, and me.
Honest and raw
My thoughts and me
Dangerous or genius,
But genuine.
From the depths of real life
To the ambitious edge of fantasy
That period of time
Cemented.
Then, and then
Now, but not now
This,
Here.
Us.
With love,
Always
