Studio Jams – Jon McLaughlin

The 77th episode of Studio Jams was recently taped at Forge Recording studios. This time, the session included pianist/vocalist Jon McLaughlin, guitarist Randy Bowland, bassist and Pottstown native Bennie Sims and drummer and Philly native James Rouse. McLaughlin has collaborated with artists as diverse as Demi Lovato, Sara Bareilles, and Jason Mraz, and he performed at the 2008 Academy Awards. His song “Beating My Heart” landed on the Billboard charts.

Studio Jams is a creative, up-close and inside look at the art of making music. In the videos “More Than Me” and “Beautiful Disaster,” you can watch McLaughlin, Bowland, Sims, and Rouse in Forge’s Studio A experimenting with different approaches before deciding on the final version. In “Human,” McLaughlin starts the video explaining how he wrote the song with Better Than Ezra‘s lead singer Kevin Griffin.
