Bio

Jonathan Plevyak is a Nashville based soul singer with a
voice that sounds lifted straight from a 1950s jukebox. In an
era of fleeting trends and digital noise, Jonathan leans into
timelessness, drawing inspiration from legends like Elvis
Presley, Johnny Cash, Sam Cooke, and Billie Holiday to craft a sound that feels both nostalgic and unmistakably his own.

His 2024 debut EP, Made In The Shade, introduced that
signature vintage style, warm, analog, and dripping with
old-school charm. The breakout single “Wild, Love” has
amassed millions of streams worldwide and inspired
hundreds of thousands of TikTok creations, cementing
Jonathan as one of Nashville’s most exciting modern-day
crooners.


In early 2025, he expanded his retro universe with his
sophomore EP, Loverboy, an ambitious, story-driven project
set in the romantic world he’s carefully built. Complete with cinematic visuals, stylized photography, and even a hand-drawn comic book, Loverboy became more than a record; it became an immersive experience for a growing community of nostalgia lovers and hopeless romantics.


Onstage, Jonathan brings that world to life. Backed by his band, The Jukebox Boys, he delivers electrifying, high-
energy performances that feel like a time warp to another era. The group joined Pokey LaFarge on his Rhumba Country tour and has since toured nationally.

Jonathan is also the creator of The Jukebox Jam, an annual 1950s prom night at Nashville’s Basement East that has quickly become one of the city’s most talked about live events.


Now, 2026 marks the dawn of a new chapter. Jonathan’s
debut full-length album, Soul Man, signals an evolution
blending the grit and groove of 1960s soul and Motown
with a modern pop edge. Rooted in the past but built for
today, Jonathan Plevyak isn’t just reviving a golden era, he’s redefining it.

“You could almost see the shadows of Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash against the wall behind him as he flowed with his band.” - Rock Oracle

“Plevyak stood proudly like a scene from Grease with a Lover Boy smile plastered on his face because he is one, self-proclaimed, and in a way that might make your grandmother swoon. Truly a jukebox of nostalgia, mixing exciting funk, heartfelt soul, and polished vintage rock and roll.” -Music City Review
