TONY MOMRELLE
is an R&B and soul singer and songwriter, one of the most exciting and significant musicians on modern British stage.
Tony started studying music when he was just eight years old. He was lucky to grow up in the church learning to sing gospel. Tony started rapping at the age of 13 and got into a hip hop band.
At the age of 18 he started getting into professional singing and song writing which also meant doing backing vocals for various artists and vocal producing.
All of these lead Tony to tour with some of the greatest artists in the world such as ELTON JOHN, GLORIA ESTEFAN, CELINE DION, JANET JACKSON, SADE, TAKE THAT, GARY BARLOW, ADNREA BOCELLI, GWEN STEFANI, GABRIELLE, ROBERT PALMER, BEAUTIFUL SOUTH,
Gospel music group SEVEN
and so on - way too many to mention!..
His success in the touring event impressed INCOGNITO's frontman BLUEY MAUNICK and thus, offered him the job as the lead male vocalist of the famous British Acid-jazz band where he resides for 6 years.
Before his stint in the world renowned INCOGNITO Tony was already solo recording artist who has released two studio albums under his name.
Music critics such as John Rockwell and Paul Morley consider Momrelle as the new Stevie Wonder of the 21st century because of his similarity to the music legend's vocal vibe.
While on tour with INCOGNITO in Japan Tony got a suprise phone call from STEVIE WONDER who said he loved his voice and was a fan of the band.
Thrugh the years Tony contributed on many albums, some of those are SADE'S "LOVERS LIVE", INCOGNITO's "LIFE STRANGER THAN FICTION", "ELEVEN", "BEES+THINGS+FLOWERS" and "ADVENTURES IN BLACK SUNSHINE", TERRY CALLIER's "SPEAK YOUR PEACE" and "TOTAL RECALL", AARON CARTER'S "MOST REQUESTED HITS" and "ANOTHER EARTHQUAKE", SKI OAKENFULL's "RISING SON" etc...
Tony's songwriting credits include several hits in the charts globally, Tony's also been writing for a new band LEXINGTON BRIDGE signed to UNIVERSAL, who's first single called "KICK BACK" written by Tony was released the first week of march.
