Jonah Kay

Jonah Kay is an up and coming guitar player in a band called Three Crowns out of Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. 

Jonah was surrounded by music as a child and went through playing many instruments including piano, trumpet, tuba and drums.  He moved on to the guitar at age 15 through a high school music program. Private guitar lessons followed and then, at age 19, he purchased his first seven string electric which is now his preferred instrument.  Currently Jonah is studying in Tom Hess's improvisation training classes and online guitar lessons to develop his musical skills further and is being mentored by Tom in the program about building a music career.

Next came the formation of Jonah’s first band, BraVurA. After a couple of line up changes, they released their first 5 song demo in September 2008, and a full length album in December 2010.  Now Jonah is playing in a Hardcore/Metal band ‘Three Crowns’ in the Kitchener area. The band released a 5 song EP in July 2011 called The Resistance.  Jonah’s musical influences range from classical to heavy metal to fusion jazz and movie soundtracks. Some of his favourite artists are Rusty Cooley, Guthrie Govan, John Petrucci, Alexi Laiho, and many others.

Today Jonah is working on diversifying his skills.  He is recording local metal bands, training guitar players who are already in bands, and working 2 to 3 nights a week doing live sound engineering.

Jonah strives to improve and expand as a musician, exploring new styles and learning new skills, working toward achieving his goals in the music industry.
