Jon writes entire albums in a month, has a Nigerian band covering his songs, and still calls himself an amateur.The Brighton-based singer-songwriter behind The Family Grave built a prolific catalog of indie folk and alt-rock records without ever learning barre chords. His "Happy Old Love Songs" trilogy (Happy Songs, Songs About Love, and Old Songs for Kids) came together across pandemic lockdowns, one-day-a-month studio sessions, and a songwriting process that treats creativity like a job you clock into for 30 days straight. Jon talks about pulling a smashed guitar from a London dustbin and teaching himself to play, why his limitations make his music more authentically his, the hold-my-beer studio moment that turned a folk song into a Latin dance number, and what it means to still be searching for your tribe after seven releases.IN THIS CONVERSATION, WE GET INTO:The smashed guitar Jon found in a London dustbin, and how it started everythingWriting 10 songs in a month using February Album Writing Month (FAWM)Why his amateur status and stubby fingers actually make his music more authenticThe hold-my-beer moment that turned a folk demo into a Latin dance numberA Nigerian producer, a cover band, and the power of saying yes to weird opportunitiesABOUT JON / THE FAMILY GRAVE:Jon is a singer-songwriter from Brighton, UK, performing as The Family Grave.
