Over many years Jon Deshler has performed with a wide range of musicians in a broad array of settings. Having significantly rebooted and reinvested in his musical life in the mid 2000's, Jon joined the LACC Studio Jazz Band and often visited jam sessions and performed at the World Stage in Leimert Park, La Louisiana, and others in and around Los Angeles. At the same time he began to perform at the Unity Fellowship Church, Los Angeles, and later at the Vancouver Avenue First Baptist Church, Portland, OR.
