I think the last I heard of Jonathan, he was holding down odd jobs and being super religious. I think the reason he left the band was because he began to be more devoted to his religion and being in a band didn't suit his faith's demands anymore (like playing on Saturdays/Sundays instead of resting)... I remember there was an interview with him in an article around the time the Valley came out or right before the Valley came out. I don't know.

If this sounds totally off, I know for a fact that I won't be able to find the article, so I can't substantiate if it's true or not. LOL.

So sorry if I'm wrong. This is coming from my fuzzy memory.

Yeah, he and I had a good long talk about that one afternoon about a year after he left.

I'm just curious if he's no longer making music. I kept hoping that that other Jonathan Wilson was him--sweet, talented guy. It got especially confusing when the other JW was working with Sparta and recording in El Paso with Jim Ward, a band that JW had liked....

Oh my bad!

Hopefully, he's happy wherever he is. Smile

A few years back a band he was part of played Brewtones. It was a while ago though, but after he left the band he did keep doing music at that point in time.
