2023 Mass Cultural Council Grant Recipient

“A creatively inventive songcrafter” – Metronome Magazine

Bio

Musician and songwriter Jon Waterman has been performing his original songs along with blues, rock and country standards throughout his life. His music is influenced by intriguing characters and stories from history, the roots of the music he loves, and the diversity of the human experience. His song “Sultana” which tells the story of the Civil War steamboat disaster was selected to be featured at the Sultana museum in Marion, AR. Waterman has presented his programs “A Journey Through the Roots of American Popular Music” and “Cro-Magnon Blues: History and Legends Through Song” in venues around the country, both in person and virtually. He has an M.A. in Popular Music History from Prescott College, an M.A. in Psychology from Kaplan University, and a B.A. in History from Northern Arizona University.

Live Music Making History Live

Jon Waterman creates and performs programs that use music to inspire enthusiasm for and a desire to explore history. The shows consist of carefully researched original and traditional songs, stories and narratives and a slide show. Each program has a historical theme, and further themes are being developed. Currently the themes are:

  • A Journey through the Roots of American Popular Music
  • History and Legends through Song
  • The Railroad through Song
  • Popular Music and Veterans

“What a pleasure it was to host Jon and Li Waterman for an afternoon of live music and history story-telling in Monroe. Their performance, “History and Legends Through Song” was the perfect combination of slide show, impressive acoustic guitar music, and remarkable original songs that gave our audience a new way to relate to some very significant history. Plus, we were the first to be introduced to their new, self-titled album, Sultana! The duo was engaging, warm and gracious, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the presentation. Highly recommended!” – Sharon Oakes, Director of Communications, Monroe Historical Society, Monroe, MA

A Journey Through the Roots of American Popular Music” by Jon Waterman is a unique performance experience combining music history, storytelling, and original songs inspired by his research. Waterman successfully transforms fascinating tales from history into an evening-length performance that feels personal, contemporary, and politically relevant. A must see for anyone interested in American history or American music!” – Sara Swifter, Director, MAGMA, Gloucester, MA

The Boxford Town Library hosted Jon and Li Waterman for “A Journey through the Roots of American Popular Music” on April 12th. They were professional, easy to communicate with in advance, and quickly established a good rapport with the audience. It can be difficult to find a program that will appeal to patrons of all ages, but they did, as evidenced by the range of faces from seniors to families with young children. We all learned about the history of our country’s music and had a wonderful time” – Elizabeth Safford, Head of Reference, Boxford Town Library, Boxford, MA

Jon Waterman’s “Railroad in Song” program was a real treat for our library community. Jon’s passion for music and history shines through in every story and song, and he has a great way of drawing the audience in and making the material come alive. I’d highly recommend Jon to anyone looking for an engaging and memorable event” – Aurelio Maraca, Program Coordinator, Danbury Public Library, Danbury, CT
