Jonas Seetoh is recognized as a leading Chinese jazz vocalist and pianist who marries trained technique with his own unique interpretation of jazz music. His soulful voice resonates with a unique charm that recalls the Motown crooners of old. Jonas started studying singing and classical piano as a child in Guangdong, China. After obtaining a music degree from the Xinghai Conservatory of Music, he decided to follow in the footsteps of his jazz idols Diana Krall and Kurt Elling.
In 2011, Jonas won a scholarship to study at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in Cardiff. It was here that he studied with world-class jazz singers Tina May and Claire Martin. Not long after, Jonas reached the final placing for the National Competition of the “Pizza Express Big Audition” in London. He was subsequently invited to perform several dates across the UK including the Brecon and Hay Jazz Festivals.
Jonas has since relocated to Shanghai where he is a regular feature at the renowned JZ Club. He is a frequent collaborator with China’s preeminent jazz artists including Lawrance Ku and Coco Zhao. In 2013, Jonas recorded his latest album “The Island” which showcases his vocal and arrangement and prowess. The songs include elements of swing, bebop, Bossanova, funk and fusion and feature performances by Van Morrison's saxophonist Lee Goodall.
