He grew up in a musical family and started playing drums as a young child. Later, the talented artist added piano, bass, guitar, flute and vocals. During his formal training at the Royal Academy of Music in Stockholm Jonathan became one of the first students to receive a Masters degree in jazz. By the age of 22 he had performed on national Swedish television several times and toured with some of the countries most respected jazz musicians. Three years later he recorded his first album and in doing so he made his mark as the first Swedish pianist to release a smooth jazz CD. “Ballads” is the sixth solo recording from the Billboard chart-topping musician showing off a different, mellow, side to his musical persona.

Inmitten seiner musikalischen Familie wuchs er in Stockholm auf und begann schon klein, Schlagzeug zu spielen. Später fügte der talentierte Künstler Piano, Bass, Gitarre, Flöte und Gesang hinzu. Während seiner Ausbildung an der Royal Academy of Music in Stockholm erhielt Jonathan als einer der ersten Studenten seinen Master-Abschluss in Jazz. Mit 22 Jahren trat er bereits mehrmals im nationalen schwedischen Fernsehen auf und tourte mit einigen der angesehensten Jazzmusiker des Landes. Drei Jahre später nahm er sein erstes Album auf und war damit der erste schwedische Pianist, der eine Smooth-Jazz-CD veröffentlichte. „Ballads“ ist das nunmehr sechste Album des charismatischen Billboard-Chart-Stürmers.
