Since 2003, “avant-jazz etc” guitarist Jon Lundbom has lead Big Five Chord, with which he has released 9 recordings. The latest Big Five Chord album, "Harder on the Outside," is was released in 2019 on Hot Cup Records. Jon’s most recent album is the 2nd volume in a collaboration with saxophonist and beat-constructor Bryan Murray aka Balto Exclamationpoint. “Beats by Balto! Vol. 2” is available now from Chant Records. Jon also performs with Bryan & the Haggards, NYC’s most decorated avant-country Merle Haggard cover band, with whom he has released three albums. The most recent, "Merles Just Want to Have Fun" featuring Eugene Chadbourne, was released on Northern Spy Records in 2013.
Jon’s music – described as “Hardbop + Zeppelin + Schoenberg” (‘SLUG’) – is a showcase for his “intense phrasing and mind-altering solo spots” (‘AAJ’), a “boundary-shattering shot of adrenaline that screws with your head and messes with your soul” (‘The Seattle PI’). Jon has been called “an idiosyncratic genius harboring boundary-stretching notions in his musical make up” (‘JazMuzic.com’); “hopefully Lundbom will start getting more attention for his fresh perspective, both as a writer and player” (‘ShanleyOnMusic’), “[Brings] new ideas to what jazz guitar can be” (‘Free Jazz Blog’); “Big Five Chord...is one of the most important [ensembles] around today” (‘Gapplegate’). “Olympic-caliber guitar gymnastics” (‘Downbeat’). “A guitarist” (New York Times).
