JONATHAN FRITH is a singer and songwriter from Bermuda and Brooklyn.
New album, Sister Blue, drops in September.
“Sister Blue” is Jonathan’s 4th studio album. Recorded with esteemed producer, Ian Hatton (of Bonham fame), it is “a gorgeous dive into what has become Jonathan’s own version of Americana. It is dreamy and raw all at once; gritty Brooklyn meeting sensual Bermuda. His vocals draw you in to songs that are both intimate and timeless, with echoes of Crosby Stills and Nash. Every song is a winner, and as the last song finishes you just want to start it all over again, going deeper with each listen.”
- Heather Nova

At first this was a “finger pointing” song, but I soon realized I was talking to myself.
First Single, JOBSON’S COVE, Out June 3rd, 2022
Jobson’s Cove references a group of church-members being baptized in the ocean surf of Bermuda, which Jonathan witnessed while he was body surfing on the morning of his marriage at age 25. Ultimately, it speaks to the spiritual and emotional complexities of a long-term relationship.
“We went down to Jobson’s Cove, there we wade in the water, Father, Son, my friend the Ghost, don’t forget your Daughter…”
