Jon Spanyol grew up in the sleepy town of Malvern in the West Midlands. During his time at school, he learned a variety of different instruments and became increasingly obsessed with music in general. He started writing songs in the sixth form and has been writing ever since.
He was offered a place at the Royal College of Music to study classical trombone, so he moved to London in the Autumn of 2002. Alongside this degree, he continued to write songs and played a lot of jazz piano for functions. Since graduating in 2006, he has been working as a musician and music transcriber on the London scene.
The eclectic nature of his musical training and tastes is clearly apparent in his songs, which combine ingredients from jazz, classical and popular music.
