​
Singer. Troubadour. Entertainer.
Jon Peters is a dynamic performer known for his powerful vocals, skilled acoustic guitar work, and soulful harmonica playing. Blending rhythm and melody with ease, Jon brings energy and emotion to every performance—whether it’s an intimate gathering or a lively crowd.
​
A Versatile Sound
With a repertoire that spans Pop, Rock, Blues, Folk, Reggae, and timeless classics, Jon puts his own stamp on every song. From the smooth sounds of Jack Johnson to the energy of U2, the soul of Van Morrison, and the charm of traditional Irish pub tunes, his sets offer something for everyone.
A Global Journey
Born in the Netherlands as Joon Peterse (pronounced Yone Paytursuh), Jon simplified his name to “Jon Peters” while touring abroad, making it easier for international audiences to connect with him—and it's a name that has become closely tied to his music ever since.
His upbringing was anything but ordinary. With an artistic mother and a father who was both a photographer and organic farmer, Jon developed a deep love for music and creativity early on.
​He moved to Ireland at age eight and returned to the Netherlands as a teen. After earning a diploma in youth work and a qualification in small engine mechanics, Jon moved back to Ireland to live with his father and focus on his music career.
Musically Trained, Road-Tested
After returning to Ireland, Jon studied music management and songwriting at Stoifan Noifa music college in Cork, while also gaining valuable experience in sound engineering, recording, and music rights. This has proven to be valuable in his career that followed, helping Jon to sculpt his dream of becoming a full time musician/entertainer.
​
Life in Australia
After years of touring and performing across Europe, Jon eventually settled in Australia, now living with his wife and cherishing time with his three children. Balancing family life with his passion for music, he continues to perform at events, venues, and festivals, sharing his love of music with audiences of all ages.
​

Jon delivers every performance straight from the heart—no sheet music, no lyric cues—just pure connection. He believes music should be felt, not read, and that every moment on stage is a chance to engage, not look down.
Whether he’s setting the tone with gentle acoustic ballads or getting everyone up on their feet with upbeat crowd-pleasers, Jon knows how to read a room and deliver the right vibe. From background ambience to full-on singalongs, with his warm stage presence, versatility and dedication to quality, he’s got it covered.
