Born in Montreal in 1979, Jonas Tomalty has been firmly rooted in the music scene for
quite some time. Jonas started singing from a very young age, around three years old.
After being part of a choir during his adolescence, he founded the alternative band
"Rubberman" with which he won the "L'Esprit" competition in 1999, a contest organized
by the radio station CHOM-FM.

His great musical talent has made him feel at home on stage since he was 15 years old.
A highly talented singer, he delved into rock under the simple name "Jonas" and into
blues with "The Blues Blooded" in the late 1990s. His strong charisma and overflowing
energy earned him the opportunity to open for renowned acts like The Tea Party.
In 1999, he also had the chance to perform at the prestigious Montreal International
Jazz Festival. After flirting with the blues for years, Jonas reaped what he sowed by
winning the "LYS Blues Award" for Revelation of the Year in 2003, awarded annually by
the Quebec Blues Association.

Jonas first gained international recognition in 2004 when his band toured North
America as the opening act for Van Halen. In the spring of 2004, he released his debut
solo album (selling nearly 100,000 copies), featuring songs written by renowned
collaborators such as Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. His initial success, stemming from his
rendition of "Edge of Seventeen," brought him recognition from the general public. The
reviews were excellent, and the album received a Juno nomination for Rock Album of
the Year. Jonas was also nominated in the "New Artist of the Year" category.

In 2006, he released his second album titled "Suite Life," which has already sold over
45,000 copies in Canada.

In 2007, Jonas delivered a memorable
headline concert at the Bell Centre in front of
over 7,000 fans, which was recorded on DVD
and titled "Live at the Bell Centre." In the same
year, he also released a documentary on the
big screen and on DVD titled "Jonas: La
Quête," where a film crew follows him around
in his various activities and portrays the life of
the passionate artist.

Then, from 2010 to 2017, it was the era of
"Jonas & the Massive Attraction," a successful
modern rock band that performed concerts all
over the globe at a staggering pace, delivering
three albums along the way. The single "Big
Slice" reached #2 on Canadian rock radio.

In 2021, Jonas Tomalty reclaimed his family name to deliver his true musical identity.
He traveled extensively to find inspiration for this new chapter in his life. He found
himself writing in New Orleans, Los Angeles, Toronto, and Nashville, which resulted in
the album "Jonas Tomalty - Undivided."
