Jon Gordon will make your audio project stand out from the crowd!
Jon is an NYC-based music and audio engineer and producer with over two decades of experience. He provides first-rate, cost-effective creative and technical services in a personalized and congenial atmosphere. Most recently, he worked on the sound track for "The New Tenants" a short film by Joachim Back, which won the 2010 Academy Award for Best Short Film. In 2009, he made the Grammy nomination list for engineering on "Listen" a CD by the Our Time Theatre Co. He has worked with a variety of clients, ranging from stars like Madonna and Suzanne Vega, to major corporations such as NBC, ABC, Fox Network, Avon Corp, and Simon & Schuster Audio.
Jon began his career as a professional guitarist and was quickly drawn into recording session work. He became involved with major label bands as a charter member of Arista Records' power-pop band "Tycoon". Tycoon's first record, produced by Mutt Lange, scored a top twenty hit with "Such a Woman" featuring Jon on slide guitar.
He subsequently worked with
both Madonna
and Suzanne
Vega as guitarist, musical director and arranger.
Jon is featured as a soloist on three of Miss Vega's
US singles, including the Billboard #3 hit, triple Grammy
nominee "Luka"
on which he shares arranging credit. He has also toured
with Mary
Travers and singer/comedienne Christine
Lavin.
Jon's own compositions in the jingle and library music field are heard world-wide, and have appeared as background music on TV shows like American Idol, Oprah, Good Morning America, and Entertainment Tonight, among others.
Jon works from his own studio facility, Jon Gordon Music Production, conveniently located in the Chelsea area of Manhattan. Being based in his own facility allows him to work fluidly with a variety of instruments, including electric and acoustic guitars, 12 string, bass, baritone, dobro, lap steel and mandolin. He is also a capable MIDI programmer, and has been engineering and mastering on a Digidesign/Avid Pro Tools system since late 1998. Recently Jon opened a second room, a Pro Tools equipped editing suite, in his home to facilitate and streamline workflow. All in all, Jon offers a mature and comprehensive suite of skills and services.
