   About Tony Orant
When you get down to it, all you need to know is this: I'm a musician. I play keyboards (especially piano, electric piano, organ, synth, clavinet), I play bass, and I sing. I love all kinds of music and at my best when playing by responding to what's going around me. I love all kinds of music, and really enjoy playing pop and rock and all its various permutations: pop, country-rock, hard rock, progressive rock, psychedelia, blues rock, soul, acid-jazz... I'm honored to say I'm an artist endorsee of HAMMOND SUZUKI and YORKVILLE, and a beta-tester/artist in residence for SPEAKEASY VINTAGE MUSIC (maker of killer handmade rotary and stationary amplifiers and cabinets for keyboards and guitar, as well as all things organ and electric piano related). The music on this page was either written by me or others and I played keyboards on all of them. Check 'em out!!! If you're interested in collaborating, send me a message.

TONY! hey man, thank you for the kind words, that was just me and my buddy doing an acoustic thing. but everyone in my band goes to providence (im at lockport) so i couldn't play with them at the variety show, but i did play again tonight with a couple other free musicians and a couple others guys im friends with in another band. we played comfortably numb. it was pretty sick! until the entire stage right power went out!! which included me and the lead guitarist. no joke, 2 measures before his first solo. so we just kept goin through it, still had the drums keys and rhythm ax goin. the show must go on, right? so for a couple seconds we tried to fix the problem ourselves, still playing the song, then we left it up to the crew to figure out, so i sang the intro again, thinking our lead guitarist would go into his first solo once the amps were back and running, but there were no monitors up on stage so you cant hear a thing, so he thought i was singing the 2nd verse, so he went into his 2nd solo and then right into the outro and end. so all in all, the crew screwed up pretty bad, musically we played great, and if you didn't konw the song, you wouldn't have recognizzed the loss of the first solo, but we were really looking forward to that cuz it was a one time deal, and we didn't get to show off our great guitarist as much as we would've liked. but overall is was pretty good.
i should have a vid up on youtube by tomorrow and ill send it your way then!
