Jones
On Monday June 14th, 2004, I lost one of my very closest and dearest friends and the music community lost a very unforgettable and influential figure. Tyrone Jones was the Lead singer and, as my business partner, was the co-founder and co-leader of Jonah's Whale. Tyrone provided employment for dozens of very talented musicians and singers in his nearly four decades as a band leader and performer, mentoring numerous young people who were heading down the wrong path and needing direction and guidance.Ty died June 14th in his home in Mesa, Arizona, after a long battle with cancer. He is survived by his loving wife Andrea, his sister Kitty, hundreds of musicians and thousands of adoring fans and friends.
We will all truly miss Tyrone Jones.
Billy Barner, June 2004
Tyrone Jones was a great leader and vocalist and I miss him very much. We were close even closer than family.

Tyrone Jones was my very best friend. We worked together in the band for over 20 years and he treated me just like his little brother. I will miss him very much but he will always live on in my heart and soul.Michael Stubblefield, August 2007
