I'm a singer, songwriter, and producer from Boise, Idaho. NEXT TOWN'S TREES is my second album. My album RADISHES AND FLOWERS was inspired by Wallace Stevens' poetry.

Jonathan Badger is a guitarist, composer and video artist.  He studied composition with Stephen Jaffe, Scott Lindroth and John Harbison at Duke University Graduate School of Music.  He also studied in Guitar Craft, a school founded and guided by Robert Fripp.  JB's work ranges from postrock sludge to neobaroque chamber music.  In live performance his compositions and improvisations show themselves in electronic garb, all the while maintaining the character of guitar music.  Often his performances include the use of a distinctly musicalized video projection system.

"This melancholic, mosaic record—the second from Baltimore-based aural alchemist Jonathan Badger . . . shuffles nimbly between extremes of darkness and light the way an Olympic figure skater transitions from twirls and spins to Lutzes and axles, a suite of fluid, involving instrumentals that draws from disparate genres to arrive at a sort of post-ambient survey course."
Raymond Cummings, Baltimore City Paper


"One of the draws of 'Unsung Stories' [is] the way Badger manages to maintain the structural familiarity of ... rock, while crashing it at speed into the forward-thinking subversion of a compositional approach unfettered by convention.
     Throughout the disc, Badger uses that subversion to unseat the comfort we take in a melody by twisting and roughening it. It makes us stop listening passively and start looking actively at what’s being done so that we can try to understand."

John Shanahan, Hypnagogue

All the Clouds Turn to Words is Jonathan Badger and Adrian Bond.
