The artist |

|
Tony Pereyra was born in Murcia, Spain. He began his music studies at the age of 6 on piano and was influenced by classical composers. He soon developed an interest in the electric guitar and more modern musical styles and began studying electric guitar, harmony and composition at The Institute of Music and Technology in Madrid (I.M.T.). During this time, he was influenced by various styles of music from rock to jazz, contemporary composers, and soundtracks. After completing his studies Tony was hired to teach at I.M.T. while working as a session musician and performing live in Madrid. While at I.M.T. he had the opportunity to meet many artists who came to the school including Scott Henderson, Joe Zawinul, Victor Bailey, Steve Morse, Ritchie Kotzen and Mattias IA Eklundh (with whom Tony has a nice friendship).
As a session musician he has worked with artists like Edith Salazar (singing teacher of ‘Operacion Triunfo') and the Spanish top chart band ‘Circus' (www.circusband.com).
As a solo artist, Tony opened for Mattias IA Eklundh's Freak Kitchen during their 2005 tour of Spain. That same year he relocated to London and worked as a session musician, arranger and composer on several projects in London (Henson Brothers, Musicbydesign) and Paris (with the French top chart singer Gilles Luka (www.gillesluka.com).
|
In March 2006 Tony joined the soul funk band Harambe. After recording his guitars for the Harambe new album “Testify” he performed in several venues across the UK. In 2007 he performed at The Musikmesse in Frankfurt doing a demonstration for the French guitar brand Kronodale.
Tony has received very positive reviews as a solo artist. The Spanish Magazine "Guitarrista Actual" wrote: ´It is not necessary to go out of Spain to find guitarist of a great level and on top of that so creative. This is the case of Tony Pereyra. In his music you can perceive the musical qualities of this guitar player with Murcian origins. A great technique to the service of music and an awesome creativity.´
Tony is currently working on his solo project, teaching guitar, and performing live.

“You will remember Hype’s tunes after the first time you hear them, this band knows how to combine rage and delicacy into beauty” (Guitarist Magazine, 2006)
“Hype’s English pop-rock gets you right away, their vibe and their lyrics stick in your mind from the very first time you hear one of their songs.” (Keyboard Recording, June 2006)

ONCE BROKEN is a hard rock/metal band from SC. OB has rocked crowds of over 5000 w/ bands such as DOKKEN AND LA GUNS.
Once Broken's sound is hard to define in words....seeing and hearing is believing. Mixing modern heavy rhythms w/ old school melodies to create a NEW sound for today is what ONCE BROKEN does best. Featuring the very distinct voice of LOKI, the rumbling melodic bass lines of Andy Britt, the heavy rhythms and wild solos of Brandon Todd, and the solid foundation laid down by Ken Lancaster, ONCE BROKEN is a band you DO NOT want to miss...... Once Broken's music is a blend of all things heavy and melodic.
|
Bringing the wild guitar solos of the 80's with the more intense heavy rhythms of today, w/ solid yet technical bass lines....tight grooves, and super melodic vocals....this band has a sound that fans of all genres can appreciate.
The first single off the new album called "Superhero" talk about the lack of positive musical or even fantasy heroes out there today......the chorus says " We came to see you fly...we came to see you soar....and be a Superhero" Well watch out as ONCE BROKEN flies and soars into your eardrums and becomes new heroes in today's music scene…
