Originally from Mexico City, grew up in a family of musicians; he started playing the piano at a very early age, and decided to pursue it as a career at the age of seventeen. In 1985, he moved to Los Angeles, and began taking lessons primarily, from his brother Francisco Loyo (Musical Director for Luis Miguel); later, he enrolled at the “Dick Grove School of Music”, and studied there for two years. Since then, he has studied with Russell Ferrante (Yellow Jackets), Clare Fischer, Eric Marienthal and many others.

Some of the many artists he has worked with include: Jon Anderson (Yes), Howard Hewitt, Herb Alpert, Marco Antonio Solís, Charlie Zaa and Luis Miguel. Salo has written many songs for Luis Miguel including “Sol, Arena y Mar” BMI award winner, and “Dímelo En Un Beso”, which were included in the Grammy and Billboard award wining album “Amarte es un Placer.” He also wrote songs for Luis Miguel’s albums “33”, “Nada es Igual” and his most recent album “Labios de Miel” – in which he was involved in the pre-production and programming of the album, too.

For his participation as a Pro Tools Engineer, in Luis Miguel’s “México En La Piel” production, he received a recognition from the Latin Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences.

Besides his studio work with Luis Miguel, Salo has been a part of Luis’ touring band since 2002, touring the world over.

He is also involved in television music and he has composed incidental tracks for TV shows in Latin America.
