Anthony
Parsons & TorQue
Steve Luongo and Mark Hitt have been playing music together
for decades. These two seasoned musicians
began a 40 year musical history lesson as original members of the legendary Rat
Race Choir in the ‘70s. In 2001 Steve
was on a break from touring with The John Entwistle Band when he and Mark
started recording in the studio. Later
that year they formed TorQue and those original sessions resulted in the
release of “TorQue 103103” to rave reviews. TorQue went on to perform or record
with some of the biggest names in music history like John Entwistle (The Who),
Brian Johnson & Cliff Williams (AC/DC), Leslie West (Mountain), Jack Bruce (Cream),
Eddie Money, Mark Farner (Grand Funk Railroad) and the list goes on. Robin
Zander called them “one of the best bands in the world.” Zander backs that up by continuing to tour
with the trio including bassist Larry Hobbs under the banner Robin Zander Band. It should be noted they are far more than a
backup band. They are all virtual masters at their craft. Anthony Parsons is a young singer from England who was
discovered by Bitsa Talent a few years ago. They signed the 22 year old
artist to their management team & began developing his obvious natural
talents. This singer-songwriter, who also plays guitar and keyboards, has been
collaborating extensively with TorQue in the studio. Together they have
recorded enough material to release no less than three albums in three
completely different genres. They did this specifically looking for the right
material for Anthony. But, they all soon
realized that together no matter what they recorded they created a truly
unique sound that was prevalent in any style. What began as a platform for
Anthony Parson’s vocal career wound up being the beginning of a truly unified
musical project. Anthony Parsons & TorQue have merged 40 plus years of
passion and experience with the youth and vibrancy of an exciting new
artist. The result is a stunning journey through decades of great rock songs
that blend seamlessly with their own new original material. Anthony
Parsons & TorQue – The definitive future of classic rock. This is
the American debut of Anthony Parsons & TorQue. Their initial three day
Florida run will end with a once in a lifetime opportunity for fans to attend a
recording session at The Hideaway Recording Studio in St. Petersburg, FL. You will be able to watch first hand as these artists go through the process of recording music for a summer release and launch a new artist's career.
