Biography:
Beginning on the guitar at age 12, Jason knew from the start that he desired a career playingmusic. Drawing his inspiration largely from various shred guitarists, metal bands, and formsof classical music, he has always aimed to push the limits of his playing while stillkeeping it very musical and dark. His personal musical philosophy places top priority on creating powerful, emotional, and expressive melodies, while using speed and flash to add intensity, rather than as the primaryfocus.Jason has played previously with atmospheric metal band Rain Fell Within, as well asprogressive metal band Ephemeral Sun, and is currently the guitarist of the atmospheric, Celtic-, World-, and Folk-music-infused Doom Metal band Todesbonden , and is also founder, composer, and guitarist in hisownband, Ol Sonuf .
Todesbonden has played with Therion and The Gathering, as well as Thyrfing, Primordial, andMoonsorrow at the Heathen Crusade, and has headlined at Jaxx Concert Hall and Nightclubin Springfield, VA. They have recently completed their debut LP "Sleep Now, Quiet Forest," which was released on June 21, 23, & 24, 2008, in Germany, the rest of Europe, and North America, respectively.
