Jonathan Freeland

With his infectious brand of twang-tinted, emotionally infused songwriting, Jonathan Freeland is not afraid to define himself as an emerging powerhouse in modern storytelling. With humble beginnings just outside of Atlanta, GA, he was raised on the sounds of classic country greats to the golden years of mid 2000s pop-punk and emo. How does someone from a small town in Georgia go from touring the country in a Broadway show back to his southern roots? By keeping it real. 

“I never felt truly authentic re-telling someone else’s story, and I won't pretend that I’m what most people think of as a typical southern guy, so when you hear a song from me, it’s really 100% who I am.”  Freeland's lyricism leaves no stone unturned and brings a refreshing twist to some of the genre’s most noted subjects - life, love, and sometimes, a little too much whiskey. This potent combination of soaring country-pop-punk infused melodies and honest storytelling leave Freeland in a genre of his own.
