  Jason met Billie Joe when he moved California and lived in the Bay area. They soon became good friends and started a record company named Adeline Records with Adrienne Armstrong (Billie Joe's wife), Jim Thiebaud and Lynn Parker. As well as co-owning a record company with Billie Joe he is also in a band with him, Pinhead Gunpowder, where he plays guitar and vocals. Jason joined Pinhead Gunpowder in 1995 to replace Mike Kersh. On the album 'Shoot the Moon' Jason wrote 'Cabot Gal'. He and Bill Schneider (bass) wanted to try something new, recruiting Bill's brother, Greg Schneider (vocals and guitar) and Willie Samuels (drums) of The Receivers. Jason and Greg began writing songs and sharing the vocal duties - sometimes collaborating, other times bringing in their own compositions. After taking their time working and playing together for a little over a year, and after only a handful of live shows, they went in and self-recorded and produced their debut album, 'Check Please', in the summer of 2000. The articles and reviews came in. They were taken back by the praise it was receiving in the press and in magazines from all over the globe. 'Check please' was a Top Five Artist Pick in Rolling Stone and a Top 10 Best Seller at local chain Rasputin's that same year.

Soon Billie Joe needed his help on an album (Jason to the rescue) and became second guitarist for Green Day on the Warning album to add a richer sound. When asked in an interview about it Billie Joe said, "Well, there are different layers on some of these songs that we needed. It's hard to be a three-piece sometimes. You have limitations. This way, Jason can play acoustic sometimes or electric when we need him". If that wasn't enough he then played on tour with Green Day on the Pop Disaster, Warning and American Idiot tours. Green Day must like this guy a lot as he has appeared in two of their videos, When I Come Around, he's the guy kissing his, then, girlfriend by the car whilst that man is perving on them, and their most recent Wake Me up When September Ends. Whist playing with Green Day he likes to stay out of the spotlight. He says "I'm just a helping hand to the band; it's all about them three" A lot of people have been wondering and saying that he is the fourth member now but that isn't true at all and isn't planning to be. Billie Joe has said "He'll be playing with us for this tour, but we're not going to a four-member band from now on." Jasons going to carry on working with Green Day whilst they are on the American Idiot tour, after that he is going to be recording new material with The Influents.
