Known as a vocalist who – for the most part – specialized in religious and inspirational works, Aled Jones (born December 29, 1970 in Bangor, Wales) was also a familiar voice on U.K. classical radio as well as a contestant on a ballroom dancing competition reality show. Signed to a recording contract before his teens, Jones was best known – at least in the first part of his career – for his version of "Walking in the Air" from the 1982 animated film The Snowman.
