Jonathan Patrick Wimberly (born May 29, 1983)[1] is an American record producer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, composer and mixing engineer best known as being one-half of the synth-pop duo Chairlift. The band parted ways in 2017 so Wimberly and former bandmate Caroline Polachek could focus on their careers as producers/songwriters.[2]
Wimberly has worked on Grammy-winning albums such as Beyoncé's self-titled album and A Seat at the Table by Solange, both of which topped the Billboard charts, and produced Joji's five-times Platinum-certified song "Slow Dancing In The Dark", as well as MGMT's album Little Dark Age and the new fifth studio album Let's Start Here by Lil Yachty.[3][4][5] He also has writing and production credits on critically lauded albums by Blood Orange, Ellie Goulding, Paloma Faith, Empress Of, Wet, and many others.[6][7] In addition, Wimberly has scored for both film and television, with an example being High Maintenance on HBO.[8]
