No Rap...no crap,
melodic and energetic, thought provoking and stirring, classic yet new,

Progressive, Bluesy, Hard-Edged !!

dash of Alice Cooper, and you might imagine what the music of Tony
Koretz is like.

Do you like music full
of hate, anger, violence and death ?........then you probably won't
like this album ! If you like puppet musicians and syrupy singers, then
this probably ain't for you. If you wear your cap on backwards, your
crotch down at your knees and listen to a ghetto blaster with some guy
rapping on about how unfortunate his life is, then click your back
button now 'cause this will probably not be your cup of tea (or dose of
'p').
BUT... if you like to grab a pair of headphones, chuck 'em on and
listen to a stereo dreamfield of soaring solos,crunchy rhythms and
lyrical imagery, this could be for YOU!
Then again, maybe you enjoy your stereo speakers cranked up loud, to
really hear them instruments come to life. Well it's time you gave the
music of Tony Koretz a listen !
With thought provoking lyrics, powerful vocals, and a message that's
designed to help give you a sense of hope in this crazy world we live
in. Koretz's music offers something interesting all the way.

BIO
: Tony Koretz is a musician, singer, songwriter and audio
engineer based in New Zealand, with a flair for writing and performing
guitar-based melodic rock. While Tony is not afraid to share the fact
that he has a Christian faith, and God consciousness underlies much of
his music, it can't be pidgeon-holed into religious rock. Preferring to
reach people wherever they are at, through his lyrics and passionate
playing, his work should provide lovers of good old rock and roll
something to relate to here. Since beginning playing piano at age 10,
guitar at age 16 years, he has had a love of performing in bands and
solo, and the recording of his self-penned music. His own brand of
music is heavily influenced by such classic rockers as Led Zeppelin,
Deep Purple, Pink Floyd and Phil Keaggy: His guitar playing style is
somewhat a mix of all these. Other guitarists that have influenced him
include Joe Satriani, Eddie Van Halen, Rex Carrol and Kerry Livgren.
Tony has also developed a good vocal range with a powerful style, and
enjoys singing with a passion and fervour that let you know this guy
loves what he does. His songs are often characterized by sweet acoustic
guitars, dirty sounding electric guitars, and an organ and Leslie
combination giving a sense of dynamics to the music. At times the music
is progressive in nature, while at other times it is quite bluesy.
While the sound is earthy, there is often a spiritual side to the
songs, with thought provoking lyrics. Always looking to grow his craft,
with new songs never far away from the pen, you can expect Tony Koretz
to be round for the long haul.
