There are multiple artists with this name.
1) American folk singer
Jason Moon is a Milwaukee-based folk/rock singer and songwriter, a veteran of the Iraq War, and a tireless advocate for veteran’s issues and for peace, and was named a “Peacemaker of the Year” in 2009 by the Wisconsin Network for Peace & Justice. He recently released his latest album Trying to Find My Way Home, “an accidental concept album” based on his own war experiences and on his attempts after his homecoming to regain the man he was before he was deployed. His other original solo recordings include Naked Under All These Clothes and Poverty.
Jason began his musical career playing around campfires in his home town of Eagle River, Wisconsin, and later relocated to Oshkosh, Wisconsin, where he attended UW- Oshkosh and was a focal point of the burgeoning Fox Valley music scene. He hosted several weekly open mics, wrote dozens of songs, and played hundreds of shows from 1995 until he was deployed in 2003. In Iraq he performed frequently for his fellow troops, but for over five years after his return in 2004 he was unable to finish more than a single song despite songwriting once being his greatest joy in life.
During this time, Jason struggled with his war experiences as best he could, suffering through many bouts of PTSD, depression, and self-medication. Breaking the cycle, he began to volunteer for Never Homeless, Milwaukee’s Homeless Veterans Initiative (www.neverhomeless.org). In 2009 he was interviewed for the forthcoming documentary feature film On The Bridge and was asked to record one of his original songs for the credits roll, an experience that energized him to finally begin to write songs again in earnest, and which ultimately led to Trying to Find My Way Home. In addition, he is a 2010 graduate of Cardinal-Stritch University, with a Masters degree in Religious Studies.
Jason Moon has performed as a member of the following acts: The North Country Ramblers, Moon & Thacia, Drivinʼ Wheel, Moon & Lipsky, Little Mischief, The Deep Bellum Revival Band, The Great Garbonzos, Every Day Toast, The Paste Eating Elmers, and Moon ʼn Schultzy. He has been honored to share stages with dozens of extremely talented musicians over his many years of performing.
Trying to Find My Way Home is available through this website and major Internet music retailers.
