Jonathan McNutt is a multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer based in Austin, TX, currently writing and producing as a solo artist. Jonathan comes from a diverse musical background, including playing guitar in riff-rock jam bands, studying jazz composition in college and then leading an original jazz band, and his current work of writing and arranging as a solo artist exploring post rock, ambient electronic and cinematic genres.
In McNuttâs music, this variety of musical influences coalesces into one distinctive voice, including frequent layering of multiple melodies and layers on top of one another to create intricate âcollages of soundâ, an emphasis on steady builds into cathartic climaxes, and complex, sometimes dissonant harmony more commonly found in jazz and classical music than in rock or electronic music. All of these elements come together to create an experience of transcendence in the listener, as you are immersed in one dynamic sonic landscape after another.
