A lifetime member and Columbia recording artist with the Perth County Conspiracy, Terry Jones has played innumerable concerts over 50 years, with various versions of this band, at small venues, concert halls and universities.

In 1970 Terry played lead guitar in a musical, "The Line of Least Existence", alongside Danny Devito, Judd Hirsch, and members of The Mothers of Invention. Terry toured with the multi-talented Cedric Smith, playing cabarets, cafes, prisons, countless folk clubs and small venues.

Terry has written music for plays, ("The Road to Charlottetown", "Ten Lost Years", and the Stratford Third Stage production of Lorca's "Yerma"), and music for films, ("A Wake for Milton", "Three Minutes to Live", and "Following the Plow"). Terry's "Whale Song", often played by Stan Rogers, is featured in the Greenpeace film "Voyages to Save the Whales", (Best color documentary-1978), and his songs have been recorded and performed by other artists, most notably "Mama Said", originally written for the play "Ten Lost Years".
