Jones was about 18 years old when he was in a band called Red Edge with his brother and some friends, but the band needed a singer. Jones put an advertisement in the local Brisbane music paper, Time Off, looking for a suitable singer. Darren Hayes responded to the ad and became their singer. Hayes got tired of performing other people's songs and he was ready to quit Red Edge, and Jones wanted to create his own music. Both decided to leave the band and began to pursue a career together, marking the beginning of Savage Garden.[5]
According to the credits on their albums, Darren Hayes handled lead vocals and arrangements, while Jones played guitar, keyboard and sang. They wrote their songs together.[6]
Originally, both men traveled the world to promote their first album, Savage Garden (1997). As travel strain and other issues began to take their toll on Jones, he decided that he was not comfortable with the press junket circuits and the intense scrutiny from fans and media that came with them, and informed the band's manager that he wanted to leave. As a result, Hayes agreed to take on the lion's share of the promotional duties for the band until the release of their second album. Affirmation (1999). In 2001, Hayes announced that Savage Garden was over. Affirmation sold 8 million copies.[7]
After Savage Garden
In 2001, Jones built his own recording studio and launched the music label Meridien Musik. The label's first act was Aneiki, a duo consisting of Grant Wallis and Jennifer Waite, who was one of the backing vocalists who travelled with Savage Garden during their The Future of Earthly Delites tour. Meridien Musik released their album Words in Place of Objects;[8] Jones five songs with Waite: "Dearest", "She Says", "Saving Grace", "Feel This Fool" and "Sugarlust". That was the only music Aneiki would release.
In 2002, Jones worked with another Australian duo, called Bachelor Girl, to co-write a song called "Falling" for their fourth and last album, Dysfunctional. In 2004, Jones helped produce for Australian pop-rock musician Julie Strickland and the Australian act The Wish (Peter Freebairn and Bill Kio) for their respective debut albums.[citation needed]
Jones then left the music industry, moved to Las Vegas, and went into the real estate business.[9] As of 2015, Jones, de Leon, and their two daughters, Mikayla (born 2006) and Keira (born 2010) reside in the United States.[10]
