Danko Jones, born Rishi James Ganjoo,[1] is a Canadian rock singer, guitarist and composer. He is the main singer and guitarist of his self-titled rock trio, which was formed in 1996. Also he contributes as a music journalist for The Huffington Post, Close-Up Magazine, Rock Zone Magazine and Burning Guitars.

Biography

Born and raised in Toronto. When he was six, he played for the first time on an acoustic guitar, and later, when he got into rock music, he got for Christmas a new electric guitar.[2]

While studying at high school, he was the bassist in his first music group 3 Reasons to Puke (3RP) along with guitarist KongDuro.[3]

In 2004 he released a spoken word album.[4]

A book about Jones authored by Stuart Berman was released in October 2012: Too Much Trouble: A Very Oral History of Danko Jones.[5]

On 12 June 2018 was published his book I've Got Something to Say.[6]

In September 2020 he announced vocal noise project Throat Funeral, which has released album OU812112.[7]

Gear and equipment

Jones' main guitars since 2012 have been Gibson SGs. The first was a 2011 Melody Maker in Satin White, bought for $400 when shooting the video for It's a Beautiful Day. The stock 491T pickup had been swapped for a P-94T.[8]

In 2014, he switched to that year's Standard model in Alpine White, and the Melody Maker was relegated to a backup. Live photos from early 2015 also show he used a black 2012 Standard P-90/[9]

Between 2002–2005, he used a cherry Fender Telecaster, and from 2006 he used that year's Black Gibson Explorer Standard,[10] also with a P-94T swapped in as per his 2011 Melody Maker.
