Jon Gutwillig

Jon "The Barber" Gutwillig is the founder and guitarist for the trance fusion jam band The Disco Biscuits. Since his part in founding the biscuits in 1995, Jon and bassist Marc Brownstein mostly share songwriting duties. Jon penned the rock opera Hot Air Balloon in 1998. Legend has it that Jon earned his nickname back in his days at the University of Pennsylvania, at the local frat house, Jon would force people into a barbers chair that was in the living room and feed them shots. Because of these actions, he eventually became known as Jon "The Barber".
