TONY SIMMONS

Legendary music virtuoso, Tony Simmons, a Kansas City native, began playing piano at the tender age of five. Born with glaucoma, Tony lost his vision completely by age seven. Tony moved to St. Louis at 13 to attend the Missouri School for the Blind.

A seasoned performer, Tony's latest accomplishment is the release of his new CD entitled "The Master Key." This compilation features a blend of R&B, smooth jazz and contemporary jazz.

Tony currently plays for Theo Peoples, Kirk Franklin and Gospo Centric. He travels and plays for Denise Thimes and St. Louis blues diva Kim Massie on many occasions.
