简介

Born in Philadelphia into a family where music was their first language, Tony began his musical journey at an early age. By the time Tony was 7 years old, he was playing the piano and trombone. At the age of 10, Tony received a Christmas present, which would change the course of his musical career, a bass guitar. This gift would become his signature instrument. By the age of 12, he began playing and singing with the family musical group, “The McLendon Family”. His parents, Elders Goldwire (Runner Up on B.E.T.’s Sunday Best season 3) and Ruth McLendon are the founding members of the legendary Gospel group, “Savettes Choral Group” whose signature song, “Sunshine Follows Rain” is known throughout the Northeast Gospel circuit. During his teenage years, Tony became well known throughout Philadelphia, Southern New Jersey and the Delaware areas, honing his gift while ministering in the area churches. Later in his career, Tony had the honor of working and/or performing with legendary singers James Ingram, Martha Munizzi, Donna Summer (Tony was featured on the song “Let There Be Peace” on Donna Summers’ “Mistaken Identity” CD), Tata Vega and Gladys Knight. In a surprising moment, he was called out of a concert audience to sing with legendary songstress, Patti Labelle. He has toured with André Crouch, ministering to thousands throughout the United States, Europe and South Africa. Tony is featured on the song “Searching” on the soon to be released CD of the Legendary Ms. Melba Moore. You can also find Tony featured on the compilation CD, “The Lord’s Prayer”. In addition to Tony, this project featured noted artists such as Tonex, Howard Hewitt, Vanessa Bell Armstrong, Martha Munizzi, Tata Vega and others. Recently Tony was asked to be the voice of Wal-Mart’s “Salute To Those Who Have Made History” T.V. commercial celebrating Black History. Currently Tony can be heard on Sunday afternoons at the renowned BB Kings Blues Club and Grill, in Manhattan, New York, where he shares his musical creativity on the bass guitar playing for “The World Famous Harlem Gospel Choir”.
