Jonathan Loya has been playing music since before he could read. Growing up in Holliston, MA in the 90’s, he taught himself how to play the saxophone by listening to his parent’s Glen Miller Band vinyl records over and over again. Throughout his childhood he also picked up drums, keyboard, and his second passion, bass. After college in 2012, Jon formed The Tallboys with friends from school and discovered a third passion for singing. They would go on to play over 125 shows throughout New England until disbanding in 2015. From 2015 through 2019, he helped start the pop-rock, two-time New England Music Awards nominated original band, Outbound Calling. Most recently, he played saxophone and bass while providing backup vocals for the award-winning, New England-area wedding band, The Lisa Love Experience. Nowadays you can catch Jon primarily playing bass with Neon Wave, along with being a fill-in for artists like Chris Moreno, JoyCo, and more.
