Born in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, Tony is mostly recognised from his work as backing guitar player and singer for other bands and musicians. He has toured with Pat Travers, recorded and toured with Paul Gilbert of Mr.Big and from 1999 to 2009 he worked as a backing guitar player and background singer for TOTO. He toured the world many times with Toto and can be seen on all of their live recordings.

Tony’s goal as a musician is to make good music with lots of improvisation. The tunes he plays include rock, blues, funk and groove influenced jams. He has never liked set lists so doesn’t use one. You never know what you’ll get but it is always honest, inspired and real from the heart music. That’s what it’s all about for Tony!
