Jonathan Rodriguez is an emerging percussionist having received his Bachelor's degree at Millikin University in Latin American Studies and Percussion Performance, and holds a Master's degree, also in Percussion Performance, from the University of New Mexico.

       He has won numerous awards and competitions for performance and scholarship, and has taught percussion lessons throughout various schools and institutions across the country and internationally.

      Recently, Rodriguez began the Postcards Project: an ongoing compilation of field recordings from Latin American countries and commisioning new works for percussion using those sources as a way to offer a different type of global perspective. He has recently continued his touring efforts in Europe with the prestigious World Percussion Group, and with Eileen & the In-Betweens, a folk/rock band rooted in social activism, across the U.S. and Canada.

      Rodriguez now leads his own jazz quintet, providing a fresh and honest approach to jazz composition and newly arranged interpretations of jazz standards.
