The moment Tony steps on stage you can feel that he’s different. There’s something about him that keeps fans loyal and coming back again and again, some for the past thirty years. There’s a reason why people say ” I need a dose of Tony” or “I need a Tony Pace fix”.What makes him different is who he is rather than what he can do.Tony Pace is unique in the fact that he cherishes his audience.
“The Man With The Voice …who just happens to be funny” became a trademark when entertainment critics and buyers attempted to explain what he does. The incorporation of his voice, talent, quick comedic wit, multi-instrumentalist, and keen sense of audiences makes him the phenomenon you need to experience. Though the impersonations can be a focal part of any of his shows, Tony’s first love is the songs themselves.
He says, “I have had the fortunate capability to remain in the music industry for over 30 years and sustain the roller-coster ride without irreversible damage. I have learned the industry from the ground up and understand both sides of the fence. Here’s to the future.”Curtain Call with David Spatz, WMGM-TV NBC40 wrote: Tony Pace never quite pictured himself in the same league as elite NFL quarterbacks like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Yet the versatile, do-it-all entertainer has something in common with two of the best signal-callers in professional football. Each has become particularly adept at looking over the defense (or audience) as he approaches the line of scrimmage (or the stage) and then adjusts the play (or show) accordingly. It’s called an “audible,” and in show-biz few do it better than Pace.
Pace’s versatility can only be compared to the era when Entertainers did it all and did it well.” An amazing musical library that will touch everyone’s heart; comedy skills that produce double the laughs and those are only a few of the highlights; an incredible tenor voice with the timing of a seasoned comedian; a charisma that puts you at ease the moment he steps on stage; a dancing ability that’s only overshadowed by his energy that doesn’t seem to end.
You’ll hear it after every show! “I’ve never seen anyone who can do all that.” His energy is contagious, addictive and keeps fans and organizations coming back time and time again. There’s a reason why people say “I need a Tony Pace fix”. What makes the difference is who he is and what he can do.
“The biographies for anyone in this industry can be written in much the same way. The difference are the ones who keep moving forward towards their goals and don’t give up.” Tony Pace
