Robert Jon & the Wreck

On October 24, 2026 at La Traverse in Cléon, Robert Jon & The Wreck will set up their amps for a set from Southern California, somewhere between southern rock, blues and West Coast soul. Around singer-guitarist Robert Jon Burrison, the band has developed a sound centered on guitars and vocal harmonies, where soul-tinged ballads, mid-tempo numbers and rougher-edged tracks coexist. Henri James’s lead guitar drives the lines and solos, the lead and backing vocals carry the choruses, all held together by a solid, fluid rhythm section.

Honed by intensive touring first in the United States and then in Europe, Robert Jon & The Wreck has shared the stage with Joe Bonamassa, Rival Sons and Buddy Guy — encounters that have sharpened their playing and cohesion. In concert, the band favors the moment: precise arrangements without excess, guitars that breathe, and a firmly rooted groove. At La Traverse you’ll find that direct, warm mix where Americana, soul and unapologetic guitar rock meet naturally, with an emphasis on sing‑along choruses and the quintet’s collective energy.
