Bio
Tony Scalzo grew up in southern California and started playing in bands in the late 1970's while still in junior high. By 1993, he relocated to Austin, TX where, along with Miles Zuniga and Joey Shuffeild, the band Fastball began gigging and seeking out a label deal. By 1998 they were a national alternative touring act with a platinum album, "All The Pain Money Can Buy" and a string of radio hits and videos.
Tony's solo material reflects the musical influences he has absorbed from his childhood in Cali as well as his experience traveling the world and living in Austin, TX. His songs range from hooky,Elvis Costello style pop rock to old-school R&B and country melodies. Melody is usually the primary focus in his music.
Scalzo has been writing around the clock for the past year and is getting set to record a new solo album this fall.
