Our Story

After moving into the music industry, Jon has had the honour of being part of some incredible experiences. His career has taken artists to the AFL Grand Final, Fire Fight Australia, the Sydney Opera House and Las Vegas, as well as music festivals all over Australia and half-time shows for multiple sporting events.

Since 2019, he has tour managed 12 national tours for ARIA Award-winner Conrad Sewell, and in 2026 alone he tour managed more than 40 shows across QLD, NSW, VIC, TAS and the ACT.

Our Team

Jon's background in playing music is rooted in pop/rock performance. Growing up with a local Brisbane band, he played every weekend at every live music venue in the city. Today he is Delta Goodrem's keyboardist, Musical Director for ARIA Award-winning artists, a go-to musician for blockbuster films (Elvis, Young Rock, Beauty From Surrender), and one of Australia's heavyweight keyboardists.

All this means that Jon's capacity on stage or on camera is present and confident. Empowering yet subtle, forceful yet forgiving.

JC Music Story

About Us

JC Music Management is an Australian management company, connected to the world through a network of industry professionals who have worked together for many years. That network includes Frontier Touring, Chugg Entertainment, TEG, Mushroom, Sony Music and Select Music.

The main man, Jon Copley, was born into entertainment. He brings more than seven years as a Tour Manager, Musical Director and Artist Manager, plus a Bachelor of Business Management from QUT. His ambition, work ethic and business acumen are matched only by his love and passion for music and the arts.

Our Vision

Our mission is to have our artists performing on the road as much as possible. The more an artist performs, the more in-touch they become with their audience.

We do everything in our power to make touring as easy and profitable as possible for the artist. That means working with industry-specific professionals across all platforms, and delivering complex live events on conservative budgets.

Our Passion

Jon's passion is building careers, not just running shows. He has grown René Le Feuvre from emerging artist to national support act, booked Alex Mather's first Australian tour, and run release campaigns for August River Band. He has also brokered partnerships with brands including Mercedes-Benz, Virgin Australia, Callaway, GQ and the NRL.

Jon's passion for live music makes him a triple threat on the touring scene. He often handles bookings, playback, tour management and musical direction for a single show. His expertise in Ableton and in running playback on tour means the show never stops.

PROFESSIONAL REFERENCES

Trustworthy

"I trust him with everything I do whether it is planning a world tour, booking flights, accommodation and venues, dealing with promoters, corporate companies such as record labels like Sony Music. Even working internationally to artists affairs."

Roderick Kerr

A&R, Saint Leonard Music

Professional

"Jon is extremely professional, always punctual and has great problem-solving skills. Above all he is extremely loyal. When you give him a task, he will always complete it if he doesn't know how he will learn or find the right person for the job."

Conrad Sewell
Multi-Platinum recording Artist

Supportive

"Jon has always supported my vision. Since bringing him on board as management he has always risen to the challenge others have always ignored. Even jumping on stage and playing as my pianist on a number of occasions"

Magnus Murphy
Recording Producer

Authentic

"I have been working professionally with Jon for the last two years as an artist in the music industry. His passion and knowledge in business is extensive and innovative and being a musician himself gives him a perspective a lot of other music managers are lacking. Jon’s business decisions are always authentic to my artistry, and in an industry of smoke and mirrors, this is all you can ask for in a professional relationship. I’m eager to continue working with him."

René Le Feuvre
Recording / Performing Artist

Visionary

“Jon’s success as a manager can be distilled down to one key reason: he cares deeply about his artists. Being a musician himself, and having toured with both Australian and international performing artists across large and small stages alike, Jon is uniquely empathetic to the needs of his artists and the inner workings of their very individual worlds. Jon’s business professionalism, acute industry knowledge and personal brand of eccentricity make him the type of manager that others should aspire to be like.”

Lachie McLean

Solicitor, Brett Oaten Solicitors

Reliable

"Jon embodies something that is lost in the music industry. As a manager, Jon will chase after something and focus on a task until it’s completed. When he says he’ll do something, you see him actually do it, a rare trait in the music industry now days”
