Book TonyThe reel
Eleven minutes. Nobody else on stage.
One voice, one acoustic guitar, shot live. It opens with “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” and does not ask for help after that.
Kind words, unprompted
“You would have thought it was like a 10 piece band.”
Dean VagnosiFather of the bride, Outer Banks, May 2025
- “I swear he was the talk of the wedding.”

- “Do not hesitate. This guy killed it.”
- About 160 guests
- Thursday, then twice on Friday
- Hired again for an 80th birthday
The man
Tony Costello.
Singer. Guitar player. A problem for anyone who planned to leave early.
The solo show is exactly what it sounds like: one acoustic guitar, one microphone and a man who treats a Saturday dinner crowd like a sold out room. He starts as background music. He does not stay there.
When he is not doing this, he sings and plays guitar for Dr Cooper, an original synth pop band from Miami and Philadelphia, and sails with The Scott Thorson Experience, a yacht rock duo. This page is about the act that fits in one car.
The glasses are load bearing.
From the poster wall
Tony’s own show posters. Yes, he approved the hair.

Sample photoRestaurants and bars
The standing Saturday night is proof. Dinner keeps moving, the bar stays full, and the corner earns its keep.
Sample photoWeddings
Cocktail hour, the welcome party, the night before. Ask Dean how that went.
Sample photoPrivate parties
Birthdays, anniversaries, the backyard. He has played an 80th and held the room.
Sample photoWherever the car goes
He drove to the Outer Banks for a wedding week. A guitar, a microphone and a speaker travel well.
A word from our sponsor
Tidy with Tony.
Every great show has a sponsor. Ours is a cleaning product that does not exist. The jingle, unfortunately, is real, and Tony sings it.
