John Moods

Jonathan Jarzyna aka John Moods is a German-Polish songwriter from Berlin and co-founder of the experimental band Fenster. He released his debut album “The Essential John Moods” in 2018 on the Berlin label Mansions and Millions, followed in 2019 by the single “I Wanted You” and a second full length album called “So Sweet So Nice” in 2021 on Mansions and Millions and the Canadian label Arbutus Records. Since the first album’s release, he has toured throughout Europe and played shows with bands such as Jonathan Bree, Homeshake, Porches and Dagobert.

His style can be described as spiritual-romantic outsider pop – quirky but with a very strong sense of pop, combined with “psychedelic to jazzy folk sound of the late sixties and seventies, to AOR eighties rock” (according to Spex magazine, among others). There are many spiritual and philosophical themes hidden in the lyrics. John Moods has collaborated several times with Canadian singer Sean Nicholas Savage, which resulted in the songs “Take It Home” on his debut album as well as “One Sweet Thing” on Sean Nicholas Savage’s album “Screamo”. Sean Nicholas Savage also co-produced the song “I Wanted You.” In 2019, John Moods toured Europe with Sean as bassist. In the same year, he released the song “Like A Whisper” with Polish artist Better Person. This was followed in 2020 by the single “Deine Welt” with German artist Luis Ake.
