Tony's exciting show, FIRE, includes full wardrobe as well as
playing with his teeth, behind his back & head, and for a grand
finale, burning guitars!
Tony "Wild T" Springer has hung with the best of them. David
Bowie, Jeff Healey, Bon Jovi, Deep Purple, Jay Leno, David Letterman and
Arsenio Hall are just some of the musical acts and personalities that have
been blown away by Wild T's guitar playing.
Wild T is originally from Trinidad. Though one may find similarities to
Jimi Hendrix, ironically it was T's first exposure to Steve Howe and
classic Yes that inspired him to take up guitar. Moving to Toronto,
Canada, he quickly gained a reputation on the local club circuit. Since
then he recorded 2 albums (Love Crazy 1991 and Givin' Blood
1995) with his own group, Wild T and the Spirit for Warner Bros. He also
recorded an album (Black Tie, White Noise) with David Bowie and has
appeared with Bowie on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Late Night with
David Letterman and the Arsenio Hall Show.
He has toured with Bon Jovi and Deep Purple throughout North America
and has performed thousands of club shows. Recently he was asked to
portray Jimi Hendrix in the Monkee Movie for TMN because of his
resemblance and showmanship.
