"'The Roads' is a story of decisions and consequences," Jonah says. "Each song represents a distinct moment in my ongoing quest to 'figure it out' and what those moments did and continue to do to me. Each is a road that I've taken that has shaped and continues to shape who I am. I hope people can find a piece of themselves in these stories, and I encourage you to listen with an open heart and an open mind. I wrote these songs to land anywhere—take them as they are, or as they are to you."
With the launch of his 'The Roads' EP, Jonah persists in pushing the limits of folk, rock, and pop genres. Infusing his distinctive acoustic-driven style with sincere reflections, Jonah encapsulates the universally felt endeavor of navigating through life's complexities, discovering its true essence.
'The Roads' comes out as Jonah wraps up his very first two-month-long headlining tour across the US in October 2023, selling out shows in Charlotte and New York City. Subsequently, he joined the American Idol winner Phillip Phillips as support on 'The Drift Back' tour, and now Jonah is set to hit the road again with his next headline tour, 'Save My Soul,' which kicks off on March 18 in Kansas City. A full list of dates can be found here, and tickets for all shows are on sale today.

ABOUT Jonah Kagen
With an inherent contrast in his musical style, Savannah, GA, native Jonah Kagen has developed the instinctive flair of a jazz virtuoso on the guitar while simultaneously crafting lyrics that resonate with audiences, becoming singalong anthems at festivals. Introduced to the guitar at the tender age of six by his musician grandfather through performance videos, Kagen delved into the instrument's technical intricacies. He drew inspiration from guitarist Andy McKee, whose finger-style technique ignited a creative spark within him.
"He opened my eyes to what an acoustic guitar could be," Jonah recalls, as he dove deeper into creating music on his own. "If you can bring somebody something with your music that they can't get anywhere else, there's nothing better than that."
Jonah's debut EP, 'georgia got colder,' released in December 2022 on Arista Records, accompanied by a number of hit singles and followed by 2023 releases of 'Made Up My Mind' and most recent 'The Roads,' brought 24 year old artist to impressive figures of over 215 million global streams and nearly 2.5M monthly Spotify listeners, proving that Jonah Kagen is undoubtedly becoming an exciting new voice bringing undeniable energy and sincerity through his multifaceted sound.
