Jason didn’t start playing the drums until his father died and took up the music as a way to “get to know” his dad. With the encouragement of Robert Plant, Jason sat-in on drums at the highly anticipated 2007 Led Zeppelin reunion concert in London’s O2 Arena. Following that historic event, Bonham created his “Led Zeppelin Experience”, a spectacular multi-media tribute to his father and the Led Zeppelin legacy.
