Rising artist Jon Keith (@jonkeith) unveils his most vulnerable project to date: GROW WINGS. Executive produced by 2025 Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, the album marks a powerful chapter in Keith’s evolution. Both sonically and spiritually.
Anchored by standout singles “WONT FLY,” “CALL,” and “EYES ON US,” GROW WINGS is a body of work that explores the beauty in emotional and spiritual transformation. Contributions from various producers and vocalists create a vibrant, layered soundscape that pushes boundaries without losing its soul.
“This album is me learning to believe that God’s love isn’t a reward for getting better, it’s the thing that makes us whole in the first place,” Keith shared in a statement. “I hope people dance to it, cry with it, and sing their hearts out. Because sometimes healing sounds like joy, sometimes like lament, and sometimes like both at once.”
How Jon Keith got his start
Born and raised in San Diego as one of eight siblings, Keith got his musical start playing drums in church. But it was a summer spent at The David’s Harp Foundation, a program focused on empowering youth through music and media, that gave him his first real glimpse into the music industry. By 14, he was writing songs, and by 16, he was recording others. A spontaneous mic check where he casually delivered original lyrics marked the turning point: Jon Keith, the vocal artist, was born.
Now, nearly a decade into his journey, Keith is known for seamlessly fusing Hip-Hop, Pop, and R&B into soundscapes that feel both personal and transcendent.
From upbeat, danceable moments to tear-stained confessions, GROW WINGS lives in the tension between lament and joy. Keith’s voice guides listeners through that emotional duality, offering a soundtrack for anyone navigating their own personal metamorphosis.
Moreover, Jon Keith invites listeners into a movement with GROW WINGS. One that affirms growth, faith, and freedom.
