Drawing inspiration from 1960s and 70s American soul greats, MT Jones has honed a sound that is simultaneously timeless and contemporary. Hailing from Liverpool, Jones has travelled the globe as a session musician, backing luminaries such as fellow rising UK star Jalen Ngonda.
Jones’s own material is imbued with the spirit of his influences, evoking a late-hours smoke filled speakeasy somehow situated in the modern day.
Winning strong support from the BBC both locally and nationally with plays on 1Xtra and Radio Merseyside, sold out shows including the Music Room at the prestigious Liverpool Philharmonic Hall underline Jones’s forward momentum.
Jones has recently collaborated with of several of the UKs greatest writer / producers, industry legends Eg White (Adele), Jonathan Quarmby (Lewis Capaldi) and Paul Staveley O’Duffy (Amy Winehouse).
Joining us for his debut Tones session, the singer played original tracks All I Do and Tough Love, concluding with a cover of soul standard At Last, made famous by the legendary Etta James.
