Jont Whittington

Jont Openheart (born Jonathan Mark Smith Whittington, 17 August 1973) is an English singer, songwriter and musician. First achieving prominence as a slow left-arm spinner for Middlesex County Cricket Club, he then shifted focus to poetry then to music. Mainstream attention followed after his song "Sweetheart" was featured on the soundtrack to the 2005 US comedy film Wedding Crashers and two tracks from his 2008 album Supernatural were featured in season 5 of the US medical drama Grey's Anatomy.

In 2019, Jont released his ninth album, Gentle Warrior, which expressed his deepening orientation towards spirituality and the healing power of music, and started playing "Gentle Warrior Ceremonies", a performance concept fusing song and meditation.
