SHUFFLE

Jukebox · Anwar McDonald & Jonathan Karkar

Anwar and I made SHUFFLE to establish our sound as Jukebox. Timeless, laid-back, and cool, with a distinct through line across styles. Songs that invite you in and leave you with something, however light or heavy the subject. An introductory taste of what we're up to.

Perspective

I’m drawn to performances that don’t feel like performances, and production that serves the story.

FROM THE ARTISTS
“Working with Jon totally changed my relationship with my music. He takes the time to understand you as an artist first, then puts his heart and soul into bringing your passions to life. It was easy to work with him because I knew he understood my vision and genuinely cared about the music. He was insightful, very creative, and not only helped me develop my music - but as an artist as well.”
