The Flying T plays Original Americana and Rock music in an all acoustic ensemble, that honors the sounds of tradition and history. Humor and storytelling are part of every show and an accordion has been known to make appearances.. Tony is based in Minnesota where he performs with bassist Tom Pieper and mandolin player Neal Doss.

Press / Reviews
