Jonathan Gallant (born on July 23, 1976) is the bassist of the group Billy Talent. Of Métis decent, Jon grew up in Streetsville, Ontario, picking up bass guitar at age 12. He attended Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Secondary School, and played in a band called "To Each His Own" with school-mate Benjamin Kowalewicz. They later recruited Aaron Solowoniuk, and merged with the band "Dragon Flower" to meet Ian D'Sa and form Pezz. During these times, Jon also went to Humber College for his post-secondary education, where he studied Jazz bass. Once he crafted his own unique style, the band recorded two demos, and eventually a full-length studio album, "Watoosh!", in 1998. [ [http://www.fm96.com/station/ongoing_history_of_new_music.cfm?recID=151&ell=8943&pge=1# The Ongoing History of New Music] . '"Before They Were Famous" "Original Broadcast date: 13-11-05 on CFNY."] During that time, Jon also played bass part-time in The Kitchen Party. Currently, Jon now is touring with Billy Talent to promote Billy Talent II. Jon is currently living with his wife and newborn child, Xavier Jeffrey Gallant, born October 5th 2007.

Many of his relatives are residing in Prince Edward Island.
