Bio
.. .. ..Tony James.. ..Growing up amid the melodies and rhythms of everyday Manhattan, Tony's passion for music formed early. He studied cello and voice as a boy, drums and percussion as a teen, and guitar in later years. .. ..At 15, he earned admission to New York's High School of Music & Art (the Fame school), learning music theory and performance. After classes, Tony polished his skills onstage by playing with various bands in legendary New York nightclubs like the Ritz and CBGB's. .. ..After attending Berklee College of Music in Boston, the world's premier institution for contemporary music study, Tony's professional career was launched in 1987.
