A multi-talented musician, Jason’s championship fiddle sounds add spark and zest, crossing many music genres. Starting with drums and piano at a young age, Jason won Saskatchewan Junior Fiddle Champion at the age of 13. Jason cut his first CD at 19, and that same year, hit the road as bass guitarist with Canadian country artist, Ronny Prophet.
During the early 90s, Jason played fiddle and co-wrote songs with the Canadian Recording Artists group, Against the Grain. House fiddler for the CTV show Number #1 West, Jason backed up numerous Grand Ole Opry celebrities. He toured as fiddle player with Brian Sklar throughout Europe, and also performed with the bands, Justice and Electric Cattle Company.
From 1994 to 1999, Jason won the Saskatchewan Country Music Fiddle Player of the Year, and received Canadian Country Music Award nominations. He also won Saskatchewan Best Instrumentalist of the Year in 1998.
At the turn of the decade, Jason produced and recorded six CD projects for Christian artists. From 2001 to 2005, he was professional sound engineer and composer for many TV series, including Corner Gas.
Jason has most recently played with Brad Johner and Warner Brothers’ Chris Cummings. His first live theatre performance happened at Regina’s Globe Theatre in 2011 as part of The Patsy Cline Show.
