ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI – Dixon Drums is thrilled and honored to welcome Tony Pia to the brand’s family of endorsees. Drummers and percussion enthusiasts around the world know and love Tony for his incredible skill, as well as the energy he brings to the stage.
“Tony really is everything we’re looking for in a Dixon Artist,” Says Jim Uding, Dixon Brand Manager. “He’s not only a touring artist with a legacy band like the Doobie Brothers, but he’s also an active teacher and has the ability to really inspire students and veterans of the instrument.”
Tony Pia began playing drums in his native Detroit, and was influenced by the city’s rich musical history and culture. He played in orchestral, jazz and rock bands as early as high school, and began professionally touring shortly after graduating. Since then Tony has toured with world renowned bands such as the Brian Setzer Orchestra, David Lee Roth and Spinal Tap. Tony will be touring with the Doobie Brothers in 2015.
