About Tony Valenziano:
Tony Valenziano’s music background started at an early age when his father, then a Capitol Records Sales Manager, brought home records by a band called The Beatles. Back in ’63, when Tony was a toddler, he was taken by the sound of the only music he had ever heard. From that early moment, Tony was driven by a force called rock ‘n’ roll. He was also influenced through his early years by music of his grandparents era, mainly big-band swing and the crooners of the day.
Smile Records was started in 1995 and is the brainchild of musician/ producer Tony Valenziano, with the release 12 addtional CDs before the summer of 2002. Valenziano has recently signed a long-term distribution deal with Image Entertainment, one of the leading distributors of videos/DVD'swho are entering into the audio market with the signing of Smile. "Powerpop is a continuous genre that transcends all those that come and go," Tony explains, "yet there's never been a label that has focused entirely on that style of music. Image shares my vision and I'm excited to have them in our corner."
