Teacher by day, passionate singer-songwriter by night. These are just a few ways to describe indie singer-songwriter Jon Pattie.
Starting his music career off as the lead guitarist in a wide variety of bands, Jon ventured into his solo career while pursuing a degree in chemical engineering.
In 2018, Jon debuted his first of a four-volume introspective series with Reflections: Vol I. Heavily influenced by artists like Alec Benjamin, John Mayer, and Jon Bellion, Vol. I explored the hard truths of searching for true, internal happiness.
“All of my songs come from the heart”, Jon says when explaining what songwriting represents for him. “It’s a form of journaling and release for me when I write music,” he adds.
Since then, Jon has spent the last year experimenting with guitar-heavy sound and synths for Reflection: Vol II. With this new project, Jon is not only sharing a story of love for music and its power of keeping us close to each other, but he also touches on depression, which he admits he was battling with when recording this EP, and difficult relationships, as well as motivating his listeners to always follow their dreams. And, as usual, he manages to do so by staying true to himself and his art.
“Reflections: Vol. II has been a dream to make. Each song comes from a story in my life and each one its own fingerprint. I got to work with some great producers and musicians who really helped breathe life into these tracks and make each track sound unique! I’m excited to be sharing this next stage of my life and my music with the world. I feel that there’s a song for everyone on this EP.”
With the release of Reflections: Vol. II on May 28th, Pattie is set to release his follow-up remixes of the lead singles, ‘Dream On’ & ‘Pieces’. They will be out on Friday, September 25th, and Friday, November 26th, respectively. Both tracks have been remixed by Texas-based EDM artist IVeY. Follow on Spotify for more updates!

“The first salvo of atmospheric tracks [on Reflections: Vol. I] by Pattie showcase his self-reflective lyrics, his knack for playing with effected string and horn instruments, and his ability to arrange harmonies around his carefully crafted melodies.”
