ABOUT
Hello!
I'm Jon from Sweden and music has been a natural part of my life since I was 15, when I taught myself guitar. At age 24 I discovered the Irish flute and tin whistle and quickly developed a deep passion for this traditional music!
Over the years, I’ve played at pubs, festivals and concerts, led sessions, taught at schools, and run courses for both groups and private students.
My journey has taken me from music studies in Sweden to the University of Limerick in Ireland, where I earned a bachelor’s degree in traditional and world music.
Why I created Tunes & Tools
Tunes & Tools started in 2019 from a simple idea: to create the resource I wished I had when I was learning.
A place where all my knowledge of Irish music is gathered in one place, clear, structured, and focused on what helps you improve.
The entire site is built and developed by me, and continues to grow with new material. Here, I bring together everything I’ve learned and turn it into step-by-step lessons, tunes and tools.
I hope this platform helps you enjoy and grow in Irish music.
Thank you to...
I’m incredibly grateful for the help I’ve received along the way.
A special thanks to:
Erik Ronström who helped develop the Drone Circle
and bring it to life.
Per-Erik Ekbäck who recorded many of the piano accompaniments, adding warmth and character to the music.
