Christopher Mark Jones

We’ll be revisiting the magic of the 2023 concert at City of Asylum which introduced the songs of Montréal Encore, the French-language recording created by Christopher Mark Jones in collaboration with the poet Bernard Pozier (from Montreal). Many of those songs will again be featured, along with songs by Boris Vian, Michel Rivard, Henri Salvador, Bertrand/Desrosiers and Louis Aragon, for a full evening of chanson francophone. I’ll be joined by Eric George on percussion, Mark Perna on bass, and Brad Yoder on harmonies, guitars, saxophones and glockenspiel. The restaurant and bar will be open. Admission is free, but registration is requested. Visit the City of Asylum website nearer the date to register.

It's been awhile, but the 12 new songs of "Now I Know" are ready to share. I'll be joined by the Roots Ensemble (Dave Gillespie, Mark Perna, Eric George), with opening sets by Vince Rause and Garnet Ash. The Acoustic Music Works has become a primary venue for acoustic-based music and is BYOB.

We'll be bringing the new record and the Roots Ensemble to VOMA, our home-away-from-home in Johnstown PA. If you're in the area, the venue and the show are not to be missed.

Always a pleasure to perform at the non-profit Trinity House Theater, with its welcoming volunteers, excellent sound and lights, and faithful fans. Joining me for the occasion will be frequent bandmates cousin Dave Gillespie on guitar and vocals and Greg Winters on bass. I’ll be featuring songs from my three most recent releases -- Looking for the Light (2021), the French album Montréal Encore (2022), and Now I Know (2026)

Dan & Pat are welcoming us into their house concert series in South Lansing. This is the trio with Dave Gillespie on guitar and vocals, and Greg Winters on bass. We'll be featuring songs from the new album as well as a selection of older songs. Note the early start time. Reservations are required to secure a seat.
