Jason P Yoder ...
Guitarist, singer/songwriter, performer and producer.
Jason P Yoder has been playing guitar for over half of his life and man does it show! In his younger years, Jason learned from guys such as John Cephas, John Jackson and Roy Bookbinder. The old blues can be felt throughout Still Water Blackout, Jason P Yoder's first album of original music. Yoder's debut album release, Acoustic Night: A Pennsylvania Christmas, which is a compilation of acoustic Christmas tunes. Each song was recorded by Jason on one guitar, and in one take. He produced the CD while his finance completed the album art, all in the comfort of their own home studio. Aside from the press and printing, how much more indie could one get?!
The method to Jason's madness can vary. Finding bits of scrap paper with a verse or a single line scribbled across it is the norm at the Yoder residence. Although he writes on whatever is available, he will gladly tell you that his favorite writing tablet is (drum roll please) the little scratch pads from hotel rooms. His original song, "Cold In Carolina" was actually written on one of those little scratch pads!
Giving back is near and dear to Jason's heart. Most of the men Jason has learned from growing up no longer grace this earth. He continues to pass on their music through his own music , and their instruction through his guitar lessons. Though Yoder's schedule gets to be quite a whirlwind of events; he always makes time to teach.
Jason is honing in on the recording side of the music industry this year. You may notice he hasn't been terribly worried about booking shows for this coming year. Not to worry, shows will be booked! In 2016, Yoder is hoping to have a second original album, as well as a second title under Acoustic Night!
