The Spiel
A breakout Fall saw MT Jones playing to sold-out venues across the U.K., including Arts Club Loft in Liverpool and Islington Assembly Hall in London. These shows marked a major step for Jones, whose journey began busking as a kid on the streets of Chester and has since taken him across Europe and beyond. Jones recently had his first US headline shows in December at Los Angeles’ Moroccan Lounge and at Brooklyn’s Baby’s All Right in January. February saw Jones on the road in Europe with St. Paul & The Broken Bones, and further shows include his already sold-out headline show at London’s Union Chapel on April 24, 2026. Jones also did a series of performances at this year’s SXSW Festival in Austin, TX, including a performance at the British Music Embassy’s show presented by BBC Introducing on March 15th, and the SXSW Radio Day Stage curated by KUTX and The Current on March 16th. With a sound that blends the warmth of 60’s and 70’s greats with the texture of modern R&B and jazz, Jones’ music is rooted in timeless songwriting, live instrumentation, and a voice that carries both vulnerability and power.
