Jon Brooks Jon Brooks Toronto It's a perilous and irresponsible life that stays faithful to a vocation that refuses - by any modern standard - to yield anything in return resembling faith or success. To be fair, since 2006, I have enjoyed the outrageous honour of being blessed to perform for thousands of open hearts and friendly souls the world over; as well, The Canadian Folk Music Awards has deemed me worthy of being nominated a record 4 times for 'Songwriter of the Year' (2007/2009/2012/2015). Still, and on my best day, the Song is woefully all I know. And many more days, I don't feel I know the Song at all! Like beauty, the Song remains an eternal mystery to me and, as often as I chase the Song, I spend my time considering dropping the sad pursuit altogether for something more secure, more responsible. But I'm stuck. The irreconcilable problem is this: I know no other thing more intimately than the Song; and, outside of kindness, it is the one thing I've occasionally touched that ascends in gratitude and love and so I stay seeking it more or less blindly.
