. JON HERINGTON Band of Steely Dan:
Jon Herington is the veteran touring and recording guitarist for Steely Dan and The Dukes Of September Rhythm Revue (featuring Donald Fagen, Boz Scaggs and Michael McDonald) ...and the lead singer, guitarist and songwriter for the New York City based Jon Herington Band. Jon's newest solo release, Time On My Hands, reflects the bluesy, driving rock that had its gestation in the club scene. The undeniable chemistry of the band, built on a lifetime of collaboration with Dennis Espantman on bass and Frank Pagano on drums, is clearly evident in this collection of ten original songs.
In his youth, Herington was writing songs and performing with his own band near his New Jersey Shore home doing opening slots for then local hero Bruce Springsteen, beginning a performing career that has continued ever since.
Since late 1999, Jon has been the guitarist of choice with Steely Dan for both recording and touring. Jon has also toured with Donald Fagen; Boz Scaggs; Bette Midler; Phoebe Snow; Madeleine Peyroux; Bobby Caldwell; Catherine Russell; Rob Morsberger; saxophonist Bill Evans; the contemporary jazz superband Chroma; Lucy Kaplansky (of Cry, Cry, Cry); jazz/blues organ great Jack McDuff; and most recently with the supergroup, Dukes of September.
Singer-songwriter and classically trained composer Rob Morsberger has been featured on PRI/NPR, and has received raves from USA Today, The Boston Globe, The Boston Herald and more. Writing in the Herald, renowned rock critic Kevin Convey stated that Morsberger's "...album is the kind of hyperliterate, pop-inflected singer-songwriter outing that went out of style when Warren Zevon died. And, he can write a hook that could make angels weep." As a sideman/arranger, he is currently working on the new Patti Smith album; other credits include My Morning Jacket, Crash Test Dummies, Marshall Crenshaw, Jules Shear, Loudon Wainwright III, Dan Zanes and The Roches. Scoring/arranging credits include Boardwalk Empire, Masterpiece Theater, NOVA and Frontline. He was also composer for the award-winning PBS series NOVAscienceNOW for its first five seasons.
