Jon B presents « Where Will Jon B? UK Tour »

Jon B. brings his Where Will Jon B? UK Tour to Birmingham on 9 July 2026 at O2 Institute Birmingham. A songwriter, singer and producer shaped by the US R&B scene of the 90s, he cut his teeth writing for others before stepping forward with a sound rooted in soul, slow jams and sleek mid‑tempo grooves. Backed early by Babyface, he laid the groundwork with Bonafide in 1995, then pushed his blend of romantic R&B and polished production with Cool Relax in 1997, a record that set the tone for the years to come.

On stage, Jon B. moves across his catalogue with ease, from the smooth contours of Pleasures U Like and Stronger Everyday to the more independent turns of Helpless Romantic and Comfortable Swagg. His shows lean on fluid vocals, uncluttered arrangements and that adult R&B feel that favors melody and groove over bravado. Expect a set that reconnects with the vibe of the era while keeping it current, drawing on collaborations and experiences with figures like Babyface, 2Pac or Donell Jones without losing the intimate thread that runs through his songs.
