Over the
life span of his singing career, Tony has studied
various styles. He started singing at the age of 6 after being
chosen for the school choir in the infants and recieved vocal
tuition from the music teacher who showed him how to use
his voice correctly and also taught him how to play the guitar.
Through his school life he performed in many productions
hosted by the school and also performed in local bands
from an early age. In the 80's and 90's, Tony was the
vocalist with Scratch and Big Shot from Birmingham who
had plenty of media coverage at the time.
For 3 years, starting in 1990 he went on to Worcester for
private tuition from some of the best vocal coaches in the
country, who work with singers in the West End and are
used for tuition in the music industry.
In 1995, after Johnny (Tico) met Tony while Johnny was
standing in for a friend in a local band, he got Tony up on
stage
to sing. After the show, Johnny asked him to
join By Jovi. Tony performed in By Jovi from 1995 until
July 2004, performing for millions of people all over the
world.
After his departure from By Jovi in 2004, Tony spent a
