Jona Weinhofen is an Australian guitarist and musician from Adelaide, South Australia. He's currently the lead guitarist for the Australian-based band I Killed the Prom Queen. Weinhofen was the rhythm guitarist for British band Bring Me the Horizon from 2009 to 2013, and was the guitarist for California based band Bleeding Through from 2007 to 2009. == Musical career == Jona Weinhofen formed metalcore band I Killed the Prom Queen in Adelaide, alongside drummer JJ Peters in 2000. The band released two LPs, one EP, a split EP, a demo and a live CD/DVD before splitting in 2007, with Weinhofen acting as manager from 2004 to 2007. After the departure of vocalist Ed Butcher from I Killed the Prom Queen, he was invited to join American band Bleeding Through after the departure of Scott Danough and played on their release ''Declaration'' and can be seen in their videos for "Death Anxiety" and "Germany".His new spot in Bleeding Through was one of several factors that caused the split of I Killed the Prom Queen in 2007. They briefly reunited in 2008 for their "Say Goodbye" farewell Tour. Weinhofen left Bleeding Through midway through 2009 partly due to homesickness and discontent with living in America. Weinhofen replaced Curtis Ward in British band Bring Me the Horizon as a permanent member in March 2009. He was featured in the music video for "The Sadness Will Never End", which was released following the departure of Ward, and recorded with the group on their album ''There Is a Hell, Believe Me I've Seen It. There Is a Heaven, Let's Keep It a Secret''. Weinhofen joined I Killed the Prom Queen when they reunited again in 2011 to play on the Destroy The Music Tour. The band also started working on a new studio album. Weinhofen was named one of the top 50 greatest guitar players in Australian history by Australian Guitar Magazine in May 2012. In 2012, Weinhofen had a guest solo spot on Mors Principium Est's album ''...And Death Said Live'', on the song "What the Future Holds". In January 2013, Weinhofen left Bring Me the Horizon for undisclosed reasons, which made way for I Killed the Prom Queen to become a full-time band once again. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jona Weinhofen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
