Released in 2002 by Boulder's Antara Records, Seemingly Dreamingly is Jon's second album of music. Expanding upon the sparse solitude of his previous record, here Jon assembled some of Ausin's finest musicians, including Joshua Zarbo (from Spoon), Tim Dittmar (Bo Bud Green), Laura Phelan (Golden Arm Trio), and more.

A lush orchestra of elements including cello, vibraphone, and vintage keys, along with Jon's delicate vocals and finger-style guitar work, Seemingly Dreamingly brings forth a gentle space of slowness, poetry, and beauty.
