Singer, songwriter and pianist Jon Regen has been a fan favorite on both sides of the Atlantic for over a decade, selling-out venues and nabbing top-tier press and radio play. Regen returns to our stage for the EFG London Jazz Festival.

Like his acclaimed album Higher Ground, Regen’s latest release was produced by Jamiroquai keyboardist Matt Johnson and weaves a wild sonic web that effortlessly links his instrumental jazz roots with pop panache, electronic experimentation and more. It also features guest appearances by Dave McMurray, Larry Goldings, Tim Lefebvre, Jeremy Stacey, Judith Owen and others.

“I called the album ‘Satisfied Mind’ because it’s the first time a collection of songs truly sounds like me,” Regen explains. “I love a good song and a great solo, but there are also moments on this record that are full of surprises. Plus, having my heroes like Ron, Pino and Rob come and leave it all on the mat - well, that’s the icing on the cake.”

Regen has worn a multitude of hats in his career – from a sought-after sideman with artists like Little Jimmy Scott and Kyle Eastwood, to an acclaimed solo artist in his own right with a Number One Billboard album. He was also the longtime Editor of Keyboard Magazine, a writer for outlets like the New York Times and Variety, and the creator and host of the popular worldwide radio show “New York Notes” that ran for nearly 100 episodes and featured guests like Bruce Hornsby, Jackson Browne and Jools Holland. So if anyone could pull together a captivating musical cast, it would be Regen.
