Jon was awarded a scholarship to the Royal College of Music in 2002. Under the tuition of Peter Bassano, Byron Fulcher and Richard Edwards, he undertook a BMus degree in Trombone, performing in many concerts with the orchestras and ensembles within the RCM, alongside many other professional engagements outside of his degree.

Jon Spanyol - Pick A Card
Jamie West - Put Your Love Letters Up EP
