Tony E To Perform Live On Spirit Of Beacon Day - Returning From NYC Back To Beacon

I’ve been listening to Tony E since he’s been a senior in High School. He used to play basketball and I always would see him and Brian O’Connor beatboxing and freestyling. I’ve followed his music career since then and believe he’s one of the best storytellers to call New York home. He’s Beacon through and through and you can feel it in his music.

Tony Echandy lived in Beacon for more than a minute. Performing at the Spirit of Beacon Day last year before he took the leap to leave Beacon for NYC, the rapper known as Tony E will be on the Spirit of Beacon’s Main Stage on Veteran’s Place at 2:30pm.

Hailed for his gritty, emotional and raw lyrics, Tony’s vulnerable delivery makes his songs captivating. Last year, Tony had released “Life Is Crazy.” His latest track, “Ice Cold” is out now. LyricalLemonade declared: “If you’re a fan of gritty, underground hip-hop, then you need to check out Tony E’s new single ‘Ice Cold.’”

Says Ali T. Muhammad, a Beaconite, former City Council member and current Spirit of Beacon Board Member: “I’ve been listening to Tony E since he’s been a senior in High School. He used to play basketball and I always would see him and Brian O’Connor beatboxing and freestyling. I’ve followed his music career since then and believe he’s one of the best storytellers to call New York home. He’s Beacon through and through and you can feel it in his music.”
