Hello and welcome to the Artist Development Group web site.

My name is John Jonethis. My brother Davis and I founded Artist Development Group Inc. with one purpose in mind: provide talented singers, musicians and performers with the advantage of a professional quality demo and promo package.

I'm speaking from experience when I say that the easiest and most effective way to demo your talent to a busy executive in the music industry is to hand them a demo and promo package that stands out in both sound production and visual quality.

There are hundreds of artists trying to get heard in Nashville everyday. The competition is brutal.

I came to Nashville ten years ago with the dream of getting a record deal. Even though I had been a successful singer, keyboard player and performer for several years prior to my move to Nashville; I really didn't know anything about the art of getting listened to. I went through considerable time, money and heart break…but I learned from my experience.

I knew, as I am sure you do, that you must truly have talent and desire; but I didn't know you need more - you need professional quality tools for showcasing your talent effectively. The talent has to be in you; but the tools for demonstrating that talent successfully are created by experienced, objective professionals. Professional producers, writers and engineers close to the music and the music industry. Professional people like the Artist Development Group.

My brother and I understand the need for an honest company that talented artists can rely on. Although we would never promise a record deal! We do promise to give you an edge over the competition with a professional sounding demo and professional looking promo package.

If you believe you have the talent and the desire and you want more information on how to be better prepared for your lucky break, call Davis or me toll free, or email us. Or if you're anxious to get started on the right way to demonstrate your talent for a singing or recording career, click the APPLICATION button.

We Sincerely Wish You The Best You Can Be,

John & Davis Jonethis

P.S. By the way, I did get my record deal. I was signed to Essential Records. (They have such platinum artists as Jars of Clay.) And I was nominated for a Dove award in 1998.
