Jon Wayne Acoustic Concert
& Book Release
Sunday, November 26, 2017
7:00 pm at The Arts Center

Jon Wayne is a Jamestown native and front man for the band Jon Wayne & the Pain. This concert will comprise of an acoustic set by Jon and a celebration of his hometown connections with his new biography, One More Trip: Jon Wayne’s Journey from Addiction to Redemption, with a Nov. 26 release party in Jamestown. Jon describes his music style as singer song-writer folk and reggae.

Jon and author Thom Wilder will sign copies of One More Trip – a harrowing tale of overcoming heroin and alcohol addiction while forging a successful music career – prior to Wayne’s Sunday Nov. 26 show at The Arts Center in Jamestown.

Armed with a powerful Foreword by Jim Nowell, father of former Sublime singer/songwriter Bradley Nowell who died of a heroin overdose in 1996 at the age of 28, Chicago-based author Thom Wilder weaves the inspirational tale of Jon Wayne’s moment of truth in overcoming addiction, changing his life, correcting his mistakes and making amends. A chronicle of growing up on the North Dakota plains, One More Trip also serves as a sober warning of the dangers of drug abuse and a handbook for a life of recovery in a drug-prone work zone.

Tickets at the door: $15 / $10 for Arts Center members.
