Jonny Berliner

Bio:

..

Jonny started gigging in 2000 and has notched up many hundreds of gigs across the UK. He released FRIEND FOR ALL SEASONS, his debut album in February 06. Available to buy from itunes and all good online music sites as well as on cd from Rough Trade in Notting Hill.

In 2007 Jonny released Please Do Not Bend, a collection of eight songs that range from quiet folk to big band swing. It is also available from itunes.

Jonny’s appeared live on BBC2, LBC and BBC Radio Leeds, and has performed FRIEND FOR ALL SEASONS live – to great acclaim – accompanied by the Royal Academy of Music Session Orchestra and conducted by Douglas Whyte.

On the first Wednesday of the month he hosts FOLKADOT @ The Green Note in Camden. As resident musician at this Time Out recommended folk night you can see him close out the evening most months.

And if you want some super fun, rocket fuelled, rockin' country blues, Jonny fronts THE FREEWHEELERS. Keep an eye out on the gigs section and come and join the party.

He has also been the resident Troubadour for the Guardian Science Podcast, which meant that he got to chat about science in a way that sounds like he knows what he's talking about and then he got to sing songs with long sciency words in. He enjoys long sciency words. These songs are available to buy on CD at gigs along with all of his other releases. Click here to buy them on itunes.

One day he hopes to win a Nobel Prize but recognises that its extremely unlikely. Aside of being a musician Jonny also composes musicals and writes plays and just about anything else that takes his fancy.
