Jon Scott

Jon has a reputation as one of the most creative and flexible drummers on the UK and European jazz scene. With a broad range of stylistic influences and a restless desire to push into new musical territories, he is in constant demand as an empathetic sideman and creative collaborator, in both live and studio settings.


Jon currently tours the world with Mercury-nominated GoGo Penguin and Ethio-Jazz legend Mulatu Astatke, and has also featured with Sons of Kemet, Agile Experiments, Julien Lourau, Jack Cheshire, Monocled Man, amongst many others.

You can see Jon performing Sonor Drums primarily with GoGo Penguin world wide.

“It’s an honour to be part of the Sonor family. I remember trying a Designer set in my local drum shop in Manchester (UK) when I was a teenager, and deciding at that moment that these were the drums for me. It was quite a few more years until I was able to get one for myself, but now I can happily say I’ve played Sonor drums for my entire professional career. They have such a unique tone and feel.”
