Jason brings nearly 20 years of award-winning writing experience to the Showbiz Cheat Sheet team. He joined Cheat Sheet in 2017 with a recent focus on vintage music, including classic rock album reviews.
The first music he remembers hearing was Huey Lewis and the News. Despite that, Jason found his way to Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Beatles (falling in love with Ringo Starr’s drumming), and more. He came around to The Rolling Stones a little late but deeply appreciates their ballads and deep cuts. When he’s not writing, you might find Jason cooking or dropping some Zeppelin and Beatles into his kids’ Raffi playlist.
