Thompson native and musician Jillian Jones debuts ‘He Is Everything’

     Through her uplifting voice and exceptional songwriting, Jillian Jones conveys the love of Christ in her debut release “He Is Everything.”

     Jones demonstrates her talents through lead vocals and piano. The five-song EP, releasing on September 16, includes four original songs and a freshly arranged traditional hymn.

     Jones, the daughter of Chuck and Kristi Osheim of Thompson, developed a love for music at a young age. By age four, she was playing the family piano and singing solos at her home church in Thompson.

     Jones graduated from Forest City High School in 2001. After years of professional vocal and piano training, she continued her passion at Central College in Pella, where she earned a Bachelor’s of Arts in Music in 2005. Under the direction of Professor Gabriel Espinosa, she studied performance, piano, voice, contemporary music styling and theory.
