Canada has produced a bumper crop of uniquely talented artists and the country’s batting average in Christian music has been especially noteworthy. In 2011 Canadian singer/songwriter Jon Bauer is stepping up to the plate.
Fuelled by the success of his critically acclaimed releases LIFE OF WORSHIP (2005), SURROUND (2008) and his children’s album GIVER OF GRACE (2009) Jon is stepping out again. His fourth pop/worship recording, FOREVERMORE, is also his US debut, with songwriting that has been likened to familiars in the industry like Chris Tomlin or Casting Crowns’ Mark Hall. This collection of songs is already making an impact at radio with three Top 10 Radio Singles. The songs are connecting with the listeners and making a significant impact in the Canada music landscape.
Produced by one of the industry’s most sought-after producers, US Dove Award-winning Rusty Varenkamp the new album features ten selections with eight written or co-penned by Jon. His warm vocals and memorable melodies put the finishing touches on a collection that’s as equally accessible on a Sunday morning as a Monday commute giving him a full touring schedule throughout North America and Europe.
