I’m Jason Goroncy, a musician and academic, born along the banks of the Mirring-gnay-bir-nong and now living with unceded Yaluk-ut Weelam country.

As a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and singer-songwriter, I discover and make music in diverse musical traditions and ensembles, spanning folk music from Australian, Celtic, Eastern European, Middle Eastern, Romani, and American cultures, as well as early jazz, manouche, and traditional jazz styles, along with chamber music. This musical journey reflects my belief in the power of cross-cultural collaboration and storytelling through sound.

In my academic life, I serve as Associate Professor of Theology at Whitley College, University of Divinity, Australia. My research interrogates the intersections of theology, culture, and human experience. I teach across various theological disciplines, always seeking to connect historical wisdoms with contemporary questions and experiences. I also supervise a range of PhD projects.

When I’m not making music, researching, or teaching, you’ll likely find me gardening, bushwalking, cooking (I have a particular passion for Indian and Sri Lankan cuisines), practising yoga, browsing through op-shops, or enjoying a cup of tea with a book in hand. I’m also passionate about visual art, theatre, and trees – all of which inspire and inform my work.

I’m always interested in connecting with anyone who shares a curiosity about the intersections of the arts, culture, theology, and community.
