Who Is Daniel Jones’s Wife?

In a July 2015 interview, Jones revealed he has since left the music industry and currently works in real estate where he sells and maintains properties.

The other half of the pair, Darren Hayes, wrote the lyrics and melodies, performed all of the vocals, while Jones mostly provided instrumental backing. However, Jones’s voice is heard in a few demo songs – such as “Aubergine Girl” – and in the countdown in “To the Moon and Back”.

As of July 2015, Jones, de Leon and their two daughters, Mikayla (born 26 July 2006) and Keira (born 30 October 2010) reside in Las Vegas, Nevada in the US.

In 2002, Jones worked with another Australian duo, called Bachelor Girl, to co-write a song called “Falling” for their second 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.

In 2001, Jones began assisting an Australian band, named Aneiki, the group consisting of Jennifer Waite and Grant Wallis. They were the first band to be signed to the music label Jones had started under the name Meridien Musik. Waite was one of the backing vocalists who travelled with Savage Garden during the Future of Earthly Delites tour for the first, self-titled Savage Garden album. Jones helped produce their first album Words in Place of Objects and co-wrote four album tracks with Jennifer; “Dearest”, “She Says”, “Saving Grace”, “Feel This Fool”, and the B-side “Sugarlust”.

Hayes and Jones wrote and performed all of their own music and had a global hit with “Truly Madly Deeply” in 1998 and “I Knew I Loved You” in 2000. Originally, both men travelled the world to promote their first album as well as perform singles. 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. The duo eventually split up in 2001.

In 2000, Jones met Kathleen De Leon (born 1 September 1977), an original member of Hi-5, an Australian children’s musical group aligned with a TV series of the same name, at the 42nd Annual TV Week Logie Awards. Jones proposed to de Leon on his 30th birthday at the GPO Bar in Brisbane. Jones wed de Leon at Avica Weddings and Resort on the Gold Coast in Queensland on 9 October 2005.

Daniel Jones (born 22 July 1973) is an English-born Australian musician, songwriter, and record producer. He is best known for being a member of the successful Australian pop duo Savage Garden, whose international hit singles included the songs “I Want You”, “To the Moon and Back”, “Truly Madly Deeply”, “I Knew I Loved You”, and “Crash and Burn”. After Savage Garden split in 2001, Jones launched his own production company (Meridien Musik) and a recording studio (Level 7 Studios), to work with various new, young Australian artists.
