Like so much of reggae, the syncopations of Jon Wayne and The Pain are designed not only to propel you onto the dance floor and boogie all night long but also to do so with a positive message celebrating life in all its strife and wonder. While this hot young band's name implies a classic cowboy doling out misery to anyone who dares cross him, the music of Jon Wayne and The Pain is about genuine pain and struggle, the pain of addiction and the fight for freedom from craving and dependence. Such meaningful lyrics could only be captured in reggae, and Jon Wayne captures that essence in brilliant detail.
Lead singer and guitarist Jon Weight (a.k.a. Jon Wayne) admits to the irony of making reggae, the Jamaican music so often associated with marijuana, that spouts a message of redemption from addiction. But Jon Wayne knows that's a misconception, a misappropriation by audiences. Real reggae is about struggle, about the determination to face down your challenges and fears and overcome them, which makes reggae the perfect vehicle for Jon Wayne's messages. But one addiction that will surely occur is audiences getting hooked on Jon Wayne's infectious hooks. Thankfully, Jon Wayne and The Pain show no signs of slowing down, and StubHub has the tickets for all their thrilling shows!
