Jon Crosby

Jon Crosby (born July 25, 1976) is an American musician and founder of the musical project VAST.

Biography Crosby was born in Los Angeles, California, and grew up in Humboldt and Sonoma counties in Northern California, raised by a single mother from an upper-class family who owned a record store in Fortuna, California. His great-grandfather was John C. Crosby, a congressman from Massachusetts, and his ancestry on his mother's side is English and Native American. His father was a lounge guitarist whom he never met.

At the age of 13, he was profiled in Guitar Player magazine and Shrapnel Magazine as a rising young star. In late 2007 and early 2008, Crosby released five download-only EPs, under the collective title Generica, billed as "an exploration of people, places and American music." The first three volumes were solo acoustic guitar songs, while the last two were recorded with VAST band members under the name "Jon Crosby and the Resonator Band".
