About Jonah

Jonah Knight plays Paranormal Modern Folk.

His songs runs from light hearted to creepy and from stream of conscious to detailed story telling. He treats his craft seriously with the goal of creating high quality music that just happens to be about ghosts & monsters, angels & demons, pirates & clones.

Jonah used to be a standard singer/songwriter with songs about traditional subjects: jobs, friends, traveling, and relationships, but after writing over 150 songs he began to lose interest. In early 2010 he had a realization that although he had been a fan of Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror/Super Heroes all of his life, he had never considered writing songs on those topics.

In June of 2010 he released the album, Ghosts Don't Disappear, a meditation on being haunted. In November 2010 he released The Exploration of Dangerous Places, an album of supernatural dangers that one encounters through travel. He is currently planning three releases for 2011, all focused on supernatural subject matter.
