Pal Tim Newton, who performed on Phuket Radio in Thailand with Jason, said: "Such a natural-born engager and entertainer – solo behind the mic, or in the company of close friends and family, or in front of thousands.
"He was certainly the best expat radio talent that ever graced a microphone in Thailand."
Another friend wrote: "Very sad news. Shocking. Loved his live music. Rest easy."
While one described Jason as being always "full of energy" with a "smiling face".
Jason's death was the first at the festival since a security guard was found dead in his tent in 2019.
