Jon Bare is a modern-day Renaissance man and a study in contrasts. Singer, songwriter, guitarist, producer, engineer, inventor, filmmaker, author and educator, Jon is the driving force behind the highly acclaimed KILLER WHALES, SHREDZILLA and ORCASTRA CD's.
Jon is a major player on the L.A. music scene. He has graced the stages of most of the major clubs and festival events in Southern California.

Jon has produced eight albums of his own music and has written a book and accompanying CD entitled "Recording The Electric Guitar," published in July, 2001 by Music Maker Publications, the publishers of RECORDING magazine. Jon is a contributing writer for the magazine, having authored more than 40 articles on recording and various aspects of the music business.
A native of Los Angeles, Jon plays guitar with a lot of skill and fire. His style has been described as Carlos Santana meets the Allman Brothers and they get in a fight.
The Killer Whales got their start back in 1993 with Tim Bogert (Jeff Beck, Vanilla Fudge) on bass and Chet McCracken (Doobie Brothers) on drums.
