Jonathan Avery
Jonathan was born in Toronto in 1983 and has been studying and performing music for most of his 19 years. He studied classical violin with the Suzuki String School of Guelph and was a member of the internationally acclaimed Guelph Youth Singers for six years. His early studies have led to his pursuing a semi-professional career in music.
For the past several years, Jonathan has been the full-time drummer for "Uncle Heavy's Pork Chop Revue," a Guelph-based experimental jazz ensemble, that performs regularly and frequently in the Guelph-Kitchener area. He also provides percussion, fiddle and vocals for Relative Harmony.

She is currently studying music at Wilfred Laurier University, majoring in violin, and intends to be a Suzuki teacher upon graduation.
