Early Life:

 

Jonah Rindner was born in Watchung, New Jersey  into an artist friendly household. At age 5, he got his first taste of music when his babysitter gave him a free pair of drumsticks - prompting his family soon after to get him his first kit. Jonah attended Valley View Middle School and affixed himself to the Jazz ensemble band. He also spent time practicing Piano in his parents living room off of an old detuned Grand Piano (which was later upgraded to an electronic keyboard)

Dolo Tonight attended the University of Maine, initially pursuing a degree in Food Science. However, his passion for music led him to transfer to the University of Colorado's Music Entertainment Industry Studies program. Encouraged by his family and professors, he eventually dropped out to focus on his music career full-time​ 

Dolo's music is an eclectic mix of alternative rock, indie, and pop, which he describes as "anti-pop" – a genre rooted in popular music fundamentals but subverted in unconventional ways. His approach involves experimenting with structure and sounds, resulting in a unique and engaging musical style​ 

Dolo’s live performances are known for their energetic and immersive quality, drawing fans into his world. His deal with Epitaph Records has helped him build a global fanbase. He continues to evolve as an artist, with a growing discography that includes critically acclaimed singles and EPs​ 

Artistry:

Dolo Tonight’s vocal style leans more towards Indie/Pop. Dolo Tonight tends to wear bright clothes with pastel color themes. The name Dolo Tonight came from his inability to attend a party with friends where he didn't end up solo for a while, eventually meeting new people and bringing them to the group of friends he came with. The name also conversely implies the feeling one gets where they want to be by themself in their room relaxing and being content alone.
