Listen to samples of Jon's Songs
Hear clips of 17 songs from a show presented at Theta Sound's Coffee House series in Burbank, California.
Here's what they're saying about this CD:
“There are songwriters, and there are great songwriters and Jon Batson fits into the second category. He has vocals that make you melt and lyrics that are heartfelt and touch the human soul.”
gilli moon, International Recording Artist
“ Jon Batson sings his songs on his new live CD as naturally as he would sing them to you in his den. Suddenly the room is filled with interesting characters. His songs are clever, articulate and concise. And Randy Tobin does a stellar job delivering great sound, as always.”
Harriet Schock, Platinum Selling Songwriter

Three New Releases in 2010 and the year has just begun!
In 2008, Jon wrote a novel in which the hero, Jack Richmond, chases down pieces of a conspiracy while the villains chase him. In 2009, the second in the series took shape. In Research Triangle - Guns, Drugs, Children, Jack discovers a room where students are monitored until the drug they are on drives them berserk.
The long-awaited Nina Knows the Night is also now available, as well as the third in the series of short story collections, this one with a Science Fiction feel - Doll Bodies.
“Thanks for writing and sharing your short stories with me. Your characters in these creative adventures come alive with the action and your clean concise writing keep the tales moving at a fun pace! I enjoyed reading them and look forward to more.”
J. K. Gildersleeve, Writer and Illustrator
"Batson's stories are contemporary yet reminiscent of an earlier time – O'Henry, Raymond Carver and Edgar Allen Poe come to mind. Luckily for us although the aforementioned have gone onto their last edit, Jon will be with us for a long time." Steven Elliot, Falls River Books
