A Little More About Me…

Hey there! 

I first want to say thank you so much for taking the time to check out my website!

I will be posting here regularly sharing various tips and personal stories to help artists create a memorable and impactful performance, as well as helping church worship teams better connect with their congregation.

A little more about me…

As you probably already know, my name is Jason.

I am more of a homebody who loves to tour the country!

I am a Toledo, Ohio native - Buckeye for life!

I am passionate about my faith, music and soccer and I also love food! My family and the community I share life with mean a lot to me.

I am a Christian

I was raised in a Christian home by my parents along with my two older sisters. I attended a Christian school grades K4-12 which I am so grateful for!

The Lord has used various circumstances and countless people throughout my life to remind me of the never-ending love He has for us!

I am a Husband

I have been married to my wife Skylar since May 13, 2017.

Skylar and I do EVERYTHING together! We work together touring around the country and working side-by-side at home in the production shop.

Skylar and I are full-time RVers. Whenever we don’t call the tour bus our home, we can always count on our 5th wheel.

As you’ll continued to learn, I’ve been blessed with an amazing team of people in my life, but Skylar is my biggest supporter! She is along for the ride in this life with me no matter what wheels we’re on.

I am a Drummer

I started playing the drums at the age of four. At age 11, I began playing in church and by the time I turned 18, I was a signed artist touring all around the country!

After a year and a half hiatus of pursing a music career, I joined Bread of Stone in June 2014. I have been making music and enjoying life with this community of believers ever since!

I am a Live Performance Producer

I started producing my first artist’s show in 2015. Since the fall of 2019, I merged my performance work with BNY Production - the company I also work for.

With drumming for nearly a quarter of a century and still going strong - touring as both a signed and independent artist for over a decade - Having recorded on numerous singles climbing to the top of the  Billboard Charts and Having played shows for less than four people and more than forty-thousand - and working with Bread Of Stone and BNY Production since 2014, I have come to learn what talents I have and the many that I don’t.

I am by no means a songwriter. I have tried and failed over the years. It’s just not for me, but what I can do is take what’s already been written, create a new arrangement for a live setting and visually get a picture of what the song can look like being performed onstage!

That’s what I do with artists. I help them to be the best them onstage that they can be! Helping others succeed in their calling, is in a way fulfilling part of mine. I work alongside them to create an onstage experience for them to share with their audience. If you want to stop just playing songs to your audience and start providing an experience to share with your audience, connect with me to schedule a FREE consultation to help jumpstart your live show!

FAQs

1. What is Purpose Live, and how can it transform my performance?

Purpose Live is your creative partner in crafting unforgettable onstage moments. Whether you're a music artist or a worship team, we go beyond typical live show production to help you connect deeply with your audience.

2. Why should I work with Purpose Live?

Because we don’t just teach you how to perform; we show you how to connect.

We’re here to transform your onstage presence. Purpose Live ensures every aspect of your show—from storytelling to technical production—works together seamlessly, helping you stand out while staying true to who you are.

3. What makes Purpose Live different from other performance coaching services?

We’re not just about making you look good; we’re about making you unforgettable.

It’s about authenticity, impact, and leaving a lasting impression on your audience.

No cookie-cutter solutions. Every artist is unique, and we tailor our approach to bring out your true essence on stage—no one-size-fits-all methods here.

No overwhelming production for production’s sake. We focus on YOU—your story, your message, and your audience. The production enhances your presence, but it never overshadows your essence.

• Wondered how to stand out in a crowded music industry
• Questioned whether you have what it takes to make a living through your music

We’re here to show you how to create a performance that resonates, connect deeply with your audience, and turn your passion into a sustainable career.

Whether you need a one-time consultation or a full show overhaul, we’ll collaborate to create a package that fits your needs and resources. To learn more, schedule a FREE discovery call where we’ll discuss your goals and craft a personalized plan.

5. If I sing and play well, isn’t that enough?

Singing and playing well are vital—but they’re just the beginning.

Performances that stand out go beyond talent. It’s about how you:

• Make your audience feel seen and connected
• Turn your songs into stories that resonate
• Create moments that stay with them long after the show ends

We help you elevate your performance, making sure your talent is packaged with dynamic stage presence, polished transitions, and memorable moments.

6. Why do you adjust song arrangements for live shows?

Because what works in the studio doesn’t always translate on stage.

Songs made for streaming or radio are fast-paced, designed to grab attention quickly. But a live show is a different experience—it’s about connection, depth, and immersion.

We’ll create space for the audience to breathe, engage, and feel every moment. Picture intros, outros, and interludes that turn each song into a journey, where every note invites your audience into the story you’re telling.

Imagine the energy of a sudden, dramatic shift that takes the crowd’s breath away, or the quiet, intimate vibe of a stripped-down section that feels like it’s just for them—those are the moments that resonate long after the music fades.

Think of it as tailoring your performance. We adapt your songs to create a flow that keeps audiences engaged, ensuring your show feels like a cohesive experience rather than just a collection of tracks.

7. How can Purpose Live elevate my live show?
