Tony Lucca

Tony was born in Pontiac, Michigan on January 23, 1976. Raised among a large music making family, he began singing and playing at the age of three. By age eight he began playing and writing with his cousin and life-long musical companion, Cole Garlak. Together they spent the better part of their school years learning classic rock cover tunes performing in garages and school cafeterias throughout Oakland county. At age 15, he moved to Orlando, Florida to enjoy four years of working as a Mouseketeer on the Disney Channel's "All New Mickey Mouse Club." After high school and the end of the show, he moved to Los Angeles to continue his career as a professional entertainer. He worked in commercials and television, but soon returned to music.

In 1997, Lucca took to the internet with his independent debut, So Satisfied. Having sold 2000 copies within a year, he then followed that up with the 1999 release, Strong Words, Softly Spoken. With only the internet and constant touring, Lucca went on to sell a total of 10,000 records in just a few short years. After garnering the 2001 LA Music Award for best male singer/songwriter, Tony Lucca had created quite a buzz with industry insiders and managed to take to the road opening for recording mega stars like *NSync and Marc Anthony, sharing the stage with a diverse array of artists such as Macy Gray, Johnny Lang, and the late great Chris Whitley.
