In the “Slow Dance with a Long Road” EPs, Jason explores his Texas roots. With his cinematic style of composition, these EPs evoke wide open roads with personal stories about beginnings, endings, and the explorations in between. The PART 2 EP is the instrumental counterpart to the lyrical part 1.

As with many things, the pandemic set my live events into a tailspin. Sprit Labs, Medicine Dances, and journey circles all stopped and instead, I’ve made myself busy with recording albums. But, good news! I am planning to get things going again by the fall of this year. Click the image for more info.
Jason Traweek is a composer and multi-instrumentalist that explores varied genres of music. Jazz, percussive world music, Irish, and country themes can be heard in his original compositions. Woven through them all is Jason’s distinctive, transportive, and cinematic style. Although he has played and recorded in many bands (including his own projects) over the years, in 2021 he released a debut album “Paper Boats” under his own name. This has ushered in a deeper dive into the composition of songs where he plays most, if not all, of the instruments on the tracks. The latest album entitled “Slow Dance with a Long Road” is a collection of songs that explore his Texas roots and wide open roads.
