Jason P. Yoder is an Americana Blues performing songwriter. His finger-style guitar technique blends moving rhythms and catchy melodies with thought-provoking lyrics. Jason’s love for the blues shows in his music, but he does not limit his sound to the traditional. Country, rock, and jazz influences can be heard peeking through his music as well. While Jason prefers the acoustic guitar, he is not shy when it comes to playing other instruments. The first instrument Jason learned, other than voice, was actually the trumpet. He can be heard on his albums and singles playing the piano, bass guitar, trumpet, mandolin, lead guitar, banjo, percussion, etc. In his extensive years of study, Jason has learned with great artists! Roy Book Binder, John Cephas, and John Jacksons are some of the many great artists he has studied under. Some of the sounds Jason learned from these great bluesmen can be heard throughout his music.
