If your name is Sarah and you used to work at AE in Michigan, I hope you’re doing well! Pretty wild that our paths crossed there and then on twitter via Jon (like 6 years ago)! Randomly wondered today if you’re on here too. It’d be pretty cool to catch up again!

So excited to hear some DAD JON music!!

Is this why kid again disappeared??

My wife and I just found out we’re having a third boy! We need help thinking of a middle name. Anything you can think of that I haven’t?

First name likely “River” of that helps…

We’re so excited!

It’s nearly impossible to pin Jon into a genre. That being said, besides Jon’s music, what’s the “furthest” genre you find yourself enjoying (without naming the artist)? I’ll go first. I’m big time into Bluegrass (especially psychedelic/jams)!

I love reading from fans who are creative minds themselves. Jon’s first “making of” videos inspired me to buy an MPC and learn beat making, then I learned a few instruments. I’m not a lyric writer but I felt I had a story to tell. Now I’m an author who makes companion instrumentals to listen to while reading!

How do you express yourself and how does it tie back to Jon?

@magnoliawhites I LOVE reading about how many fans are connected to his artistry though their own art themselves

Each of my life stages have that that song. Started with “Don’t ask cuz I don’t know”, flash forward and my wife is walking down the aisle to me to the sounds of “to my future wife”.

Doesn’t have to be a Jon song, it could be one he produced. I know we all connect to his music in our own ways and we all love to gush about it. So do it here! Tell me your stories! —JAA

Saw Jon at the shelter in Detroit 2 days after seeing him in Cleveland on the definition tour! He and the whole BM crew signed my MPC. One of my most treasured memories and possessions, truly. When I’m feeling a certain way I’ll pull it out and read Jon’s handwriting “never wake up from your dreams!”

Very excited to hear how fatherhood has changed you! In your absence I also became the father of two young boys, with another unknown on the way! It’s been incredible and transformative to say the least.

BIG congrats to you and your wife and glad to have you back!
