The key to a Jason Didner (jasondidner.com) song is clarity of its main idea. Jason and his wife Amy often grow song ideas right out of their kitchen table conversations. When one says something funny or catchy offhandedly, the other reacts with “Hey! That should be a song!” Then the work begins, laser focused on the song’s purpose.
Since 1993, Jason has communicated his feelings and observations directly with audiences through song. His sense of humor often shows up in his creations, balanced with heartfelt messages and conversations. Both sides of Jason’s lyrical personality were on display when he opened for Willie Nile at Montclair’s Outpost in the Burbs concert series in spring 2023.
His best-known song “You Can’t Get There from Here in Jersey” has enjoyed airplay on National Public Radio, a topical mention in a New York Times article and inclusion in Asbury Park Press’ 10 Best Songs by NJ Artists in 2022.
Jason’s 5th solo album “Digital Carnival” is set for release on April 19.
