Magnolia Blooms
JASON and SUSAN met online during the pandemic. After three months of phone conversations, they started writing music the first day they finally met in person. Magnolia Blooms was formed in 2022. Before Magnolia Blooms, Jason toured with his first duo, Whisky Row, and played on national and international tours. He spent many years in Nashville songwriting and producing an album, which led him to perform on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. Susan has been in the film and television industry for 30 years. She is the owner/operator of a film studio and a performing arts academy. She is an award-winning actress and filmmaker. She always had a passion for singing and songwriting. Together, they combined their talents in songwriting, producing music, acting, filmmaking, developing a film series, and composing music for film and television. They have been opening shows and headliners for Film Festivals, Clubs, Farmer’s Markets, and Community Events from the East to the West Coast. Their Country/Blues Duo Magnolia Blooms is a powerful statement of who they are musically and as partners. They both claim they saved each other. After a difficult time in his life, Susan reignited Jaosn’s love for music. When Susan stopped breathing when she had COVID-19, Jason performed CPR and brought her back to life. She lost all lung capacity and thought she would never be able to sing again. He played guitar for her in the ICU and kept up her spirits, helping her recover. That year, they began their journey to share their music because it’s never too late, and you never know how much time you have to do the things you love. They record and continue to record their music in Nashville, Tennessee, with Grammy Award Winning Producer Matt Coles at “Compas Records” and Muscle Shoals, Alabama “FAME Studio”. They love entertaining, engaging, and captivating their audience in truthful storytelling. The connection and passion on stage match their connection to each other and the compassionate connection they have found in each other and continue to build as soul music mates.
