Discography
Returning to his beloved New York City home towards the end of 2005, Tony made the decision to forgo any further theatre opportunities so that he could return to his first love and ambition, ...that of 'creating music that moves'. Collaborating with some of the best writers / producers in the business during the course of 2006, Tony found himself singing from a more comfortable place than previously, and has produced an EP of honest 'rock influenced pop' that he is proud of. 'A Better Way' was released on September 18th 2007 and showcases some of Tony's best music to date. This special self funded EP is available to purchase NOW!
One Deed (1997)
With this project Tony wanted to move in a more personal and less conventional musical direction, so he teamed up with veteran L.A
"The most important thing for me on the second record was to have the freedom to experiment, marrying the programmed, synthesized elements that I was used to, with the creative energy of a live band," says Tony. That second album, "One Deed," took over a year to write and produce, and reflects Tony's continuing drive to find out who he is as an artist and what he has to say as a songwriter.
"My goal has always been to create songs that are honest and vulnerable, yet connect with the listener in an encouraging way. If I can't bring you deep enough into a song to give you some degree of hope, in spite of life's many challenges, then i'm not doing my job. There's more than enough darkness and despair in the world to last a lifetime. I want to do something positive."
At the beginning of 1997 "One Deed", became the theme for the United Way campaign, and over a two year period was used for radio, television, outdoor and newspaper adverts. Tony also spent time serving as the campaign's spokesperson.
Tony Vincent (1995)
Tony Vincent had the opportunity to spend three months opening for a group called the Newsboys on their "going public" tour, and it was through that experience that people started to wonder who this 'Tony Vincent' was. The first solo album, "Tony Vincent," a 100% pop vibe filled with integrity, was co-produced by Brent Bourgeois (Bourgeois-Tagg), and was released in April 1995. Written and recorded just after Tony's 20th birthday, the album generated four consecutive number-one radio singles ("Simple Things", "Out Of My Hands", "Whole New Spin", "Must Be The Season").
Love Falling Down EP (1993)
Where it all began......"I have been singing and playing drums and percussion since I was 7 years old, but I really wanted to learn to write songs," Tony remembers. "In high school, a friend introduced me to samplers and synthesizers -- essentially, computers that are tools for making music -- and I immediately became a ‘techno-music’ geek. I worked long hours after school just to buy my first keyboard."
Many of those remaining school days were spent writing and performing his own songs, which in turn led to his decision to pursue a business degree in the music business via a nationally - recognized program at B
With a combination of what might be called youthful Naiveté and artist's intuition, Tony decided to create his own independent record company out of his college dorm room and an impressive demo album was born. One of the songs featured on this album is a cover of "I Still Believe", a song originally featured in the 80's cult movie "Lost Boys". But it was to be the title track that was to lead to Tony's breakthrough into the music industry. In almost no time at all, the original song, "Love Falling Down", began to receive considerable hometown radio air play, encouraging Tony to attempt to release the single on a broader level. As more and more radio stations picked up the single, the song hit several national charts. "Love Falling Down" caught the attention of EMI's Star Song record label in N
