JD MONSON Singer Songwriter HOME PAGE

J.D. has over 500 songs in his repertoire. Below are a few Fan Favorites of C&W, Texas Country, Classic Rock, Original, and holiday Cover Tunes.  Below is only a partial list.

Please click on the links below to hear Original Music. All Original songs were written and composed by J.D. Monson. J.D.'s signature song is "Rain Makes Corn".  He wrote it over 12 yrs ago, and to this day, it is still a fan favorite.  Once you listen to it, you will see the witty humor he has created. All original Songs are copywritten. Click on the Video link to see a mini compilation of Band performances on Original songs as well as cover tunes.

J.D.'s 2 newest songs are "Hanging on Padre" and "Castaway". You can view them on You Tube because he hasn't recorded them yet.
If you are patriotic or know anyone in the military "Red, White, and Blue" is for you and should be the theme song for the U.S.A.    Listen to the words, and you too will be touched. If you are a farmer or know someone that is, "Over and Done" is dedicated to you.  If you are a Jimmy Buffet Fan, you will like "Island Way" and "Kissing in the Gulf".   "Sacrifice" was written for fellow Officers that were killed in the line of duty.    "A little girl smiles" is about a child in the hospital with cancer.   If you like witty humor, "Rain Makes Corn" ,"Cactus Wine", and "Bowser" are for you.  If you like good old Dancing Music "Music Man", "Trail Dust Slide", "Sad Old Cheating Song", and "Bowser" are for you. If you are a romantic, "In Jayna's Eyes" is for you. If you are a Willie Nelson Fan, you will like "Goodbye Old Walls". There is something for everyone.

JD's newest CD "Island Way" and previous CD “Cactus Wine” is available for sale at Amazon.com, itunes, Rhapsody, emusic, Napster, Liquid, Music net, and Snocap for $10 each. There is something for Everyone on the Cd's. Hope you enjoy them.
