Details:
Known for his thought provoking lyrics and unique, creative style, Jonahs came into this world on December 7, 1976, with a desire to change it for the better. His musical career began while in college where Jonahs used music as an escape from the rigors of academia. It was not uncommon for Jonahs to uninhibitedly speak his mind while performing rough and unrehearsed musical ramblings at open-mic sessions, coffee shops, or house parties in Logan, Utah. His musical influences are diverse, including: Nirvana, Blind Melon, Led Zepplin, Pearl Jam, Neil Young, Steven Stills, Bob Dylan, Rush, Jimi Hendrix, the Grateful Dead, the Doors, Bob Marley, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, the Rolling Stones, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, and the Beastie Boys.
While in college, Jonahs took advantage of summer breaks to travel the world. His vagabond wanderings include trips through Spain, France, Great Brittan, Equator, Peru, Mexico, Canada, Alaska, and countless lonely highways of the American West. Jonahs drew inspiration for song writing from life on the road, and during his travels he wrote the lyrics to ‘Hitchhiker’, ‘Simplify’, and ‘Fly Away’. While traveling he would avoid the sites frequented by tourists; instead he sought to experience the cultural essence of a place, to meet and understand the people who lived there, and take home a deeper understanding of the world and his role in it.
It was on the road, and in the lecture halls of the university he attended, where Jonahs became aware of the seriousness of the problems facing our generation, and our planet. In particular, social injustices associated with ethnicity, class, and/or economic status. Jonahs has been especially influenced by witnessing preventable ecological degradation caused greedy corporations, industrial polluters, unchecked suburban expansion, a general disregard for the intricate balance of nature, and by understanding how environmental troubles often result in human suffering. This is apparent in the lyrics to his songs ‘Leave It All Behind’ and ‘Restless Hope’.
In December 2002 Jonahs found the love of his life, and started dating a girl who later became his wife. Sometime in-between then and the time he was married in October 2003, Jonahs wrote ‘For Anna’ and ‘Shades of Gray’. In April 2007 he became a father to a beautiful little girl, and soon after wrote the words to ‘A Lullaby For Ava Skye’. Jonahs’ real name is Brian Cardall, and he starting using the pseudonym as a mechanism to maintain his musical career separate from his ‘day job’ as a scientist. He holds a Masters degree in Ecology and is currently a PhD student at Northern Arizona University studying Molecular Genetics.
