J and Montecristo took a drive to Huntington Beach from their LA studio. There, they met a couple of girls, set up a bonfire, started strumming on their guitars and working out the songs which will eventually end up on their EP. 
"Everything was so organic. We just sat under the stars with new friends singing and just talking about whatever came to our minds. There was fire, water, earth and wind. It felt so perfect." - J
That night ‘California Jones’ was formed. 

Filipino phenom, JEJ, began singing at an extremely young age, and while OPM (original Phillipine music) was a staple in his childhood, he quickly realized his voice was forged to sing songs that could be the fiery love children of Luther Vandross and Whitney Houston. While Jej didn’t immigrate to the US until halfway through high school in 2011, his artistry was already aligned with the soulful saturation of American R&B heritage. Since his arrival, JEJ has had the honor of sharing his voice with a wide variety of audiences, sporting an impressive performance resume that spans from the BMI Pop Awards to the White House. JEJ is currently finishing his education at the prestigious USC Thornton School of Music, and plans to continue to cultivate his talents as a Vocalist, Songwriter, Arranger, and Composer when he graduates in 2019.
