Tony "T" has literally been on the road for over 30 years
playing the blues. He has performed and toured with David Dee, Boo
Davis, Big George, Barbara Carr, Big Jack Johnson, Marcel Strong,
Tommy Bankhead, Rudy Ray Moore, Ernie Isley, Johnnie Johnson, and
Bo Diddley among others.
Although he makes his home in Columbia, Missouri, Tony has a long
standing relationship with St. Louis and its blues community. As a
musician, he maintains a level of professionalism that reflects his
attitude towards not only the music but his fellow musicians. If it
was a club gig, benefit, or special project and he was available,
Tony "T" would drive several hours if necessary, arrive
on time and ready to play with a smile. His talent, dedication, and
reliability are invaluable assets to touring performers that occasionally
have to rehearse the band and deliver a memorable show in the same
day!
Tony takes genuine interest in others and takes time to connect with
them. He has always been aware of how the simplest things are often
the most important. Taking time for a moment of reflection with "T"
reveals how deeply he cares for others and thinks about them. As a
spiritual person, Tony "T" has the strength to endure whatever
life unfolds and the wisdom to be at peace with its outcome.
Imagine life without music or music without life. They are both gifts
from a higher place and a blessing to be shared with those around
you.
