Tony has been playing music his whole life. His father introduced him to the guitar and to Latin and Jazz music. Soon his musical palette broadened to encompass classical and flamenco. His understanding of these diverse styles has let him craft out his own sound that is melodic, romantic, rhythmic, and sophisticated.

Tony is an active and sought out guitarist and recording artist in many styles. He has recorded 5 albums under his own name and recorded music for the Compass label which has been featured across the United States. His 5th album entitled “Flamenco Latino” contains 12 original Flamenco Latino pieces featuring Flamenco, Samba, Bossa Nova, and Latin Jazz styles. His music has been featured on documentaries, film, commercials, and television such as Turner Classic Movies, Showtime's "Dexter" series, and the in the film "Species". 

In 2008, Tony was asked to perform for, then Presidential candidate, Barack Obama at Oprah Winfrey’s estate in Santa Barbara.
