His father Rick was a musician and his mother Holly was an actress/dancer.

He learned to play the piano, violin, upright bass, and clarinet by the age of 12.
Jonathan's favorite childhood toy was Robotron.
He described his early years as "the normal hell-childhood", probably because her parents divorced and re-married with other people which Jonathan didn't like much.

He's 6 feet 2 inches tall.
He was an Assistant Coroner at the California Kern County Coroner's Office, a job he got through his school.

Jonathan met Ryan Shuck of SexArt (now a member of the band Orgy) and joined the band. SexArt only lasted about 4 months, and they never put out a demo. They did, however, have a song called "Inside" on the Cultivation '92 compilation.

Munky was born is Rossdale California and grew up in Bakersfield California.
He started playing guitar after cutting off part of his finger in a three-wheeler accident. The doctor said it would be the perfect way to rehabilitate his finger.
He met up with Brian "head" Welch in High school and was asked to play in his band and munky says it "wasn't because i could play guitar, it was because I had long hair".
It was Head and Munky who discovered Jonathan Davis in a club and recruited him to the band that would later be known as Korn.
Munky has one child, Carmella, with his ex wife, Stephanie, and he owns the clothing store Meeschka in California.
He gets hurt most out of anyone in the band, he's 6'2, he likes to drink, and he's a funny guy.
