About this listen
Joy is... Surrender.
Jon Bilbrough (aka Wilderthorn) is known for secret gigs in disused and abandoned spaces, turning forgotten places of history and atmosphere into wild and magical ‘Wilderthorn-experiences’. Having begun his musical journey in Asia, touring his earliest gigs in Sri Lanka, Malasia, Singapore and India, he then returned to Chennai, India, to create demo recordings with local Bollywood musicians, famous for their work with award-winning Indian composer, A.R. Rahman. Out of those experiences would emerge the sounds and textures of his debut recordings and idiosyncratic performances that sway between song and improvised territory, driven by Jon’s powerful, emotive voice, tinged with dark operatic tones and folk-style flourishes. In intimate settings, he can be found backed only by his acoustic guitar and in larger venues by a wave of primal rhythms, clanging dulcimers, electric guitar swells and haunting violin textures.
