The original song that Tony could write for your occasion is wrote especially too your requirements, this a unique gift and is specially delivered and presented with a bottle of wine and scroll of the lyrics.
In May 2013 Tony will be touring Japan with the Pete Best Band.
As of May 2014 Tony is featured as an official part of the Liverpool Beatles tour at the Casbah Club whereby tourists can book Tony to play a set of Beatles covers as part of the tour.
