Ambient

Hi. I'm Jon Ham. I dabble in guitar, bass, keyboards, drums, beats, foundsounds, and audio ART. Be sure to check out Sound of Would, a band in which I play guitar...
Band/artist history
I started out in the band CRIME in Wheeling, IL. My next group was Evanses Brothers Band, in Rock Island, IL. I have also played upright bass with the Augustana College Jazz Band, and toured Germany with the Wheeling Symphony Orchestra. Then, after moving to New York, I played with various groups, including Boyd and the Hambones, Tal Rahk Wal, Cosmic Consciousness, Western New York Allstars, and a few shows with Nonesuch 4. I have played in the Fredonia Red White And Blues festival twice, the Wouldstock? Free Music Festivals, and am now very happy with my current band, Sound of Would.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I "dj" at parties, play at fires, and play guitar with the band Sound of Would.
Your musical influences
Ravi Shankar, Jerry Garcia, Sound Tribe Sector 9, Charlie Parker, Curtis Mayfield, Umphreys McGee, Herbie Hancock, Brian Eno, and of course mother earth
What equipment do you use?
Yamaha DJXII, Yamaha PSR 620, Washburn fretted & Warwick fretless basses, modified Epiphone semi-hollow electric & Carvin custom electric guitar, Hoyer & Guild acoustic guitars
Anything else?
if you don't hear any music, you're not listening hard enough...let yourself resonate...your music is your life; if you only think about it while you're onstage, you're cheating yourself and your listeners...breate it in, let it fill you up, and send it back out...also check out Sound of Would: -- classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0" WIDTH=468 HEIGHT=60
