THE ARWEN LEWIS SHOW - Special Guest JK Jones Today Arwen welcomes the great JK Jones! JK Jones picked up her brother's guitar before age 10 and studied classical flute in grade school. She won gold and silver medals for performance at the Los Angeles Unified School District Solo and Ensemble festival. She also performed as part of the Folksters group where she debuted her first Joni Mitchell covers. In college, she began songwriting in earnest, joined a band, and played at various venues in the Bay Area, including on the radio, at coffee houses, private parties, and weddings. JK returned to performing after a performance hiatus to raise a family and care for her parents. She sang at pops concerts, and joined the Los Angeles Lawyers Philharmonic and Legal Voices Choir, with whom she sang at the Disney Concert Hall, Royce Hall, and the Wallace Annenberg Theatre in Los Angeles. In 2015 JK suffered a neck injury that changed everything. She fought to recover her voice. After more than a year of intensive physical therapy and vocal retraining, she found new confidence. She started rolling out her originals and Joni Mitchell covers at various open mics, on YouTube (@JKJonesmusic1), at the former Coffee Gallery BackStage, the Lost Chord, Tarzana Community and Cultural Center, the Canyon Club. She headlined a Joni Mitchell Tribute concert at the Stardust concert series in May 2023. She was recently invited to perform at a Joni Mitchell Tribute in British Columbia, Canada. JK was awarded a scholarship to attend the 2023 New England Singer Songwriters Retreat for her original “Sisters of Mercy” which will be on her first album expected to be released in Spring 2024
