MT Jones joins host Stephen Kallao

His voice is the first thing you notice about MT Jones, who hails from Liverpool, but sounds like he’s straight out of Motown. After attending school at the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts, Jones became a songwriter for other artists before taking the leap with his debut album, Joy. Coming up, a mini concert from MT Jones.
