Jonathan Roy’s 3-track single “Waiting For A Call” is a blissful blend of his signature vulnerability, passion, and soulful expression that you deserve to experience.

The palpable passion, the strikingly enchanting, rock-like sultriness in his vocals, and the profound passion when he performs “Waiting For A Call’s” memorable hook, “She’s got me going back home, sipping all alone, just a bit stoned sitting by my phone, waiting for a call that will never come…” is enough to make you fall in love with this jam even without trying. Jonathan Roy has got those effortlessly powerful (not to say he doesn’t put in the effort) vocal runs, and his range is simply impeccable. His way of articulating those emotions is what makes this title track imprint itself permanently on a listener’s heart and soul, and before long, you are stuck with it forever because now, it is part of your favorite playlist and for some reason, you just can’t get enough of it.

And it’s not like we are not aware; all along, we’ve become accustomed to Roy’s heartfelt blend of vulnerability, passion, and soulful expression, and still, we went more, growing fond of him with every new release. And who can blame us? He’s just so good and keeps getting better at what he does, so much so that you wish to confess that to him midway through his performance…& through the headphones!

Prepping for his highly awaited album, “Waiting For A Call” paves the way for what is going to be a sonic odyssey like no other—one that brings together the whole band, and the music just oozes out of them like a limitless stream. He has reiterated that this album is going to be special, and after what I’ve just experienced, I cannot argue with that!

“Waiting For Love” resonates on an emotional level as Roy comes out all vulnerable and heartfelt, conveying his raw emotions with profound ease. His rich, emotive tones that balance power and delicacy are what allow him to balance this song’s intimate moments with those soaring ones, his voice a direct connection to his soul as much as a listener’s.

As the single unfolds to “Just For The Night I’m In Love With You” and “Nice To Meet You,’ a blissful, more laid-back, and mellow jam, Roy’s dynamic range and nuanced delivery come alive, amplifying the depth of his storytelling and making each song feel like a personal conversation.

This is a project that is versatile and dynamic, balancing elements of pop, rock, and folk with the lush melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and polished production characterizing each song here.

What can I say? “Waiting For A Call” is both timeless and modern, appealing to a wide audience while maintaining a distinct identity. And through it all, Roy’s ability to infuse this project with sincerity, vulnerability, and a touch of optimism is what makes him stand out in any crowded pop landscape.

If “Waiting For A Call” is the gateway leading to this new special album, I want all in, and I won’t have it any other way!
