Tony Walton

Tony Walton started The Cyclones in 2015. He plays tenor sax, is the band’s MC and he’ll be leaving a welcome trail of musical mayhem across Darwin throughout the Dry with a residency at Dinah Beach and various other gigs around town.

What was the first concert you ever went to?

The first concert I went to was in 1973 or ‘74. It was AC/DC in our school hall in Melbourne. It was so loud the school hall nearly blew apart. Kids' dads were on the door as security. Bon Scott rocked.

What’s your favourite album of all time?

My all-time favourite album is ... gee this is hard ... umm ... Devo's Are We Not Men? I love quirky and it has a sensational cover of 'I Can't Get No Satisfaction’. Great album.

Finish this sentence. My friends would describe me as...

Someone who only has a few close friends and is very protective of those friendships.

Whose posters did you have stuck to the wall when you were a teenager?

I had posters of Katie Rendina on my wall when I was a kid. I was in love! 

Describe your sound in three words.
