Tony Romero has been active in the music industry as an online presenter for over 10 years promoting independent music.

Music has been a big part of his life growing up in Southern California listening to a variety of different genres from blues to prog rock. At the age of 18, he started learning to read music and play keyboards with the aspiration of someday recording some original music.

He started with AiiRadio, doing 3 shows a week dedicated to unsigned progressive and progressive metal artists.
