“Jonathon Linaberry looks back on Radio Waves, his sixth album as The Bones Of J.R. Jones, but there’s more than just nostalgia at play. Recorded with producer Robbie Lackritz (Feist, Bahamas), the collection is moody and hypnotic, drawing on the sonic landscape of Linaberry’s youth as it reckons with the doubt and uncertainty of adulthood. The arrangements are entrancing, built on the tension between acoustic instruments and retro synthesizers, and Linaberry’s performances are raw and visceral, at times aching in their vulnerability. Put it all together and you’ve got a poignant exploration of memory and longing delivered by a relentless searcher, a revelatory work of personal reflection rooted in the endless beauty, pain, and chaos of growing up.

Born in central New York, Linaberry got his start playing in punk bands before becoming enamored with the field recordings of Alan Lomax. He launched The Bones of J.R. Jones in 2012 and began releasing a series of albums and EPs that would land his songs in films and TV shows like True Detective, Suits, and Daredevil, and lead to countless tours across the US and Europe, including stops everywhere from Telluride Blues to Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. Along the way, Linaberry would also share bills with the likes of The Wallflowers, G. Love, and The Devil Makes Three, soundtrack an Amazon commercial helmed by Oscar-winning director Taika Waititi, and earn praise from Billboard, American Songwriter, Under the Radar, and more.”

Bridge your Good Friday and Easter Sunday at Oak Cliff on Saturday, where .forsyth presents “Distance & Volume: Live Acoustic Imaging” featuring special guests like , , , and .leonie! 👨‍🎤👩‍🎤

“This immersive acoustic performance places the artists around the edges of the space while the audience gathers in the center. The lights stay low and the volume stays restrained. There is little to no amplification, just voices, wood, strings, and harmony traveling naturally through the room. The songs chosen are the ones that cut deepest, the ones that felt unavoidable when they were written. Performers may subtly weave into one another’s moments, adding harmony or texture, but the focus remains on intimacy and intention. There is no spectacle and no hiding, just sound moving in real space. Imagine sitting on a living room couch while a great singer wails softly from the kitchen, close enough to feel and far enough to float. Bring a pillow. Come lay down.”

🎵: “Love Comes Back Around” by David Forsyth feat. Frankie Leonie — available for streaming on ’ Swipe Right Singles Club 🎡💿➡️
