Colman Jones

Canadian musician/composer/visual artist Colman Jones is a creator who thrives on the edges of genre. With a career spanning decades, his sonic output ranges from intimate solo piano pieces to fuller orchestrated works, alongside minimalist drones and experimental electronic improvisations.

He draws on a deep well of experience, having spent nearly 40 years at the CBC, Canada’s public broadcaster, producing and scoring numerous documentaries for flagship programs IDEAS and CBC News: Sunday. 

He has performed at venues across Canada and the UK, both as solo pianist and as a member of diverse bands such as 241-2121, Crossover, NRG, Twilight, Holy Smoke, The Roach Motel, and the Garth Douglas Band; accompanied vocalists Gayle Manley, Mary-Jo Maur, Marie-Lynn Hammond and Gwyneth Baillie; and collaborated on recent albums with artists RE-VO and Bob Moher.
