Moonspell - 'Extinct'
Off the back of the contribution that Jon made to the Angra album, Jens Bogren enlisted Jon to orchestrate six tracks on the new Moonspell record, called 'Extinct'.
Moonspell are a gothic metal band from Portugal, and similarly to Angra, they have been rockin' the world for two decades.
Jon's work appears on the songs 'Extinct', 'Domina', 'Malignia', 'A Dying Breed', 'The Future is Dark', and 'La Baphomette'.
The album was released in March, 2015. Find out more about Moonspell and 'Extinct' at the band's official Facebook page.

So...What's Next?
There will be more to come of Jon's orchestration work with Jens Bogren in the near future, so watch this space!
Until then, Jon will be finishing up a project he's been quietly working on with some incredible musicians from Norway and the USA.
In fact, he is heading off to Oslo later this month for a photoshoot relating to this album project, so stay tuned!
