After his return from Afghanistan in 2012 he used music to help deal with his struggles and soon released his debut album 'Road to Nowhere'. Not long after he teamed up with some more musicians and together formed The Tony Q band. After 13 years of service Tony decided that it was time to pursue his dreams and discharged the Army to become a full time musician.
