 "Manson’s knack of delivering simple pop pleasures via a troubadour’s insight, is a rare treat in today’s crowded music environment."   Glide Magazine 9/13/16

2016 Con Artisti/Appaloosa

“With the recent release of Angels on the Other Side (his first solo release in seven years), Manson has not only showcased a stellar selection of songs from years worth of travel, experience and collaboration, he has also solidified his position as a beloved and iconic member of the local music community.” Santa Fe Reporter 

Jono Manson Music

"Manson, long a New York fixture, but in recent years ensconced in Santa Fe, is a four-decade veteran of rootsy rock. The Slight Variations finds him co-writing with Caline Welles (his wife) and old pals Chris Barron (Spin Doctors) and Joe Flood. With its bluesy guitar riffing, honky-tonk piano, and gospelish female backing vocals, "Rough and Tumble" recalls the Rolling Stones, except more vital than they've been in years. There are also songs of sweet tenderness (but never sappy) and some thoughtful material that elevates Variations above the roots-rock norm. One of my favorite albums of 2016."
