“As a live performer Jont gives all of himself. His joy and love of singing emanate from the stage. He has a powerful presence, a gentle warrior, a fire cracker and a healer all rolled into one.”
— Sharon
"Feeling the earth beneath my feet, feeling the wind on my face and sun on the trees, not a moment to lose, not a moment today when I won't be in the right now..."

Reunion Cafe is a new groundbreaking monthly Cacao ceremony hosted by UK singer-songwriter Jont at Music on the Hill in Sydney Mines. Effortlessly blending the fun of a party and a gig with the intentionality and emotional power of a sacred song ceremony, Reunion Cafe presents native and non-native local songwriters and bands in an alcohol-free environment that feels like a cozy living-room.
This month we are deeply honoured to have Mi’kmaq singer-songwriter Hubert Francis join us, and alongside him local artists Sonnie Greening and Bethany June will play short sets followed by Jont & The Fish.

“Many artists can entertain with their music, but you've taken your art beyond entertainment, into a world of reflection and wonderment, on things that have been, and are yet to be. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts. ”
