The Jon Cohen Experimental is the brainchild of Montreal musician &

songwriter Jon Cohen. Having been a key member of such diverse and

popular bands as The Dears, The Social Register and many more, Jon

formed his own group in the spring of 2006 as a response to over a decade

of service to the prolific Montreal music scene.

The results were two beautifully crafted albums of which their second, the

apt-titled Behold. Behold garnered massive press and media attention with over one hundred acclaimed articles, reviews and write-ups printed in North America.

The new epic sound, best described as a bass heavy, cornucopia of beat-

driven, genre-defying, ethereal pop music is delivered with raw precision. It

is creatively layered and constructed piecemeal. Instrument after

instrument, part after part, Cohen's tightly-crafted, mood-provoking

melodies offer a unique take on modern alternative music.
