Talented Performer JonoJosh Details His Mixed Race Experience in New Single “Half”


When you have the skills to move from the background to the main stage, you need to take that chance before it disappears. This time around we are checking out “Half”, the most recent single from performer JonoJosh. Better known as JJ Gerber, JonoJosh originally worked for years as a backup dancer and choreographer for a solid chunk of A list stars still active in today’s industry. While his dream has been to write music, JonoJosh utilized his unique standing and learned plenty from the likes of PSY, Carley Rae Jepsen, and Janelle Parish just to name a few. It wasn’t until 2016 that JonoJosh made the plunge and dropped his debut EP OUTSIDE. Receiving plenty of acclaims from his first drop, JonoJosh participated in CBC’s Spotlight series and continued to grow as an artist on this new career path.

Once he dropped his follow up single to OUTSIDE “Chance”,  JonoJosh was offered the part of Gilbert at the Charlottetown Festival in Anne of Green Gables and became the 1st Person of Colour to play the part on a professional stage!

Now with multiple years under his belt as an artist, JonoJosh has revitalized his sound to take properly embody modern RnB. Racking up over 50,000 streams with his previous 2019 singles, it’s clear that JonoJosh has what it take to succeed as an artist in today’s age. His new single “Half” tells the story of JJ’s experience being mixed race in today’s turbulent and violent world. Not everyone understands what that means in the world today and JonoJosh wants to help clear that up. RnB may be the medium, but you need to listen to his words first. “Half” is beautiful and intriguing track that will assist on looking inward and examining your own life in these chaotic times.
