Johnathan Herron

Hello, my name is Johnathan Melvin Herron, but most of you probably already know me. Starting my life in the prairies, I grew up living on a farm 5 minutes away from Esther with Mom and Dad, and my 3 sisters. My early years consisted of playing around with whatever dangerous equipment I could come across, smashing whatever guitar I was gifted as a kid, and spending countless hours behind a screen playing games. My education started at New Brigden School, but after grade 3 I switched school and attended OPS in Oyen. One year later, our family ended up moving to town. Here, as I lived out my teenage years, my true passions began to be built. During these years I would finally take up a musically inspired career, with me joining a band and playing the drums. Although I didn't stick with this instrument, my musical aspirations did not subside, as I have transitioned to playing guitar. Rock, Metal, Nu-Metal, Heavy metal, and even video game OSTs have shaped the way I look at music, and  inspirations, such as Jimmy Hendrix, Mick Tompson of Slipknot, and Tony Perry of Pierce The Veil, only served to further fuel my ambitions as I further improve my skills. With my future ahead of me, I’m finally ready to leave Oyen to see what lies ahead!
