About Jon Krosnick

Krosnick’s official biography traces parallel classical-percussion and jazz-drum training through Interlochen, Harvard, MIT, and private study with Peter Erskine. It documents ensemble work ranging from orchestras to the Lunar Octet and his own small groups.[1]

In the Bay Area, Krosnick performs with Charged Particles and has served as an artistic adviser for several local concert series. His biography also records his role co-creating the 7 Mile House Jazz Festival in 2018, combining eleven bands with a permanent Bay Area musician-photo exhibit and community awards.[1]

Charged Particles’ official history presents Krosnick with keyboardist Murray Low and bassist Aaron Germain in an acoustic-and-electric trio. The group’s media archive connects that biography to studio recordings, live audio, videos, and the albums Charged Particles and Sparks.[2][3]
