Tony Vega Band

Founded in 1997, the Tony Vega Band has become one of the premiere independent ryhthm & blues acts in the world. This hot Texas act has forged their own brand of red hot ryhthm & blues infused rock n’ roll. Making the band’s sound especially unique is Vega’s relentlessly soulful guitar work and one of the most unique velveteen voices to come out of Texas in years. The hard driving, hip-shaking rumble is powered by longtime TVB drummer Jeremy “Honeyboy” Pierce and seasoned Gulf coast blues veteran Larry “Lownote” Johnson. Find out what the buzz is all about!
