“I’ve known Tony since my first job at Piccadilly Radio in Manchester. Over the following forty years, I haven’t met a raconteur better than Tony. His firsthand knowledge of the music industry is second to none, but for me, the unique aspect of Tony is how he tells these stories and makes them relevant, humorous and engaging. He’s been surrounded by some of the world’s biggest stars, many of whom he helped rise to fame and his stories are both inspirational and unique. My son has just started working as a music researcher in New York and when asked who he could talk to about the Manchester scene, there was only one name I gave him – “Call Tony the Greek!”

ANDY BIRD

Chairman (CBE)

I’ve known and worked with Tony for more than 30 years. Tony has an incredible ability to harvest nuggets from a lifetime in the music industry and show how the lessons learned can be applied to leadership and business. He brings a room to life and show its relevance to the corporate world is a rare one. If you get the chance to see him speak or work with him, you should seize it with both hands. You’ll learn loads and have a bundle of fun along the way because he’s a blast to work with.

“I re-booked Tony for a speech at Stetson University after such great feedback from his previous visit. All in attendance were mesmerized by his anecdotes, photos and accessibility. In fact, many commented on how refreshing it was for our students, regardless of major, to be able to instantly relate to someone of his illustrious professional stature.”

PATRECE ROBINSON

“Tony has taken the lessons learned from a lifetime inside the rock machine and constructed a new way of fine tuning business practice. The stars he as worked with can now be your inspirational motivators.”
