Introducing AWAKE – A Modern Masterpiece by Tony Moore
 
Get ready to immerse yourself in the sound of an era, as Tony Moore, the legendary London-based singer/songwriter, unveils his highly anticipated album, AWAKE. This is no ordinary release. It’s the culmination of a remarkable career that spans decades, legendary collaborations, and an eclectic mix of musical influences.
 
Tony Moore’s story is as legendary as the music he’s created. In 1977, he joined a then-unknown band called Iron Maiden as their keyboard player, leaving just before they signed their first major deal. 
His journey didn’t stop there—Tony went on to perform and create with icons such as Brian James (guitarist from The Damned) when they toured with Black Sabbath in 1978. He then went on to be part of the proto-progressive band England (Garden Shed), where he spent years in a secluded studio in the heart of the UK countryside, crafting a distinctive sound. 
 
In 1983, Tony formed Radio Java and recorded his debut album at the iconic Abbey Road Studios, leading to a holiday hit in Holland with the song FOOL.
 
In 1986, Tony was invited by Cutting Crew to join as their keyboard player. For the next two years, he toured the world, supporting the global hit single, I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight. 
 
This global stage laid the foundation for his solo artistry, leading, eventually, to the creation of AWAKE—an album that beautifully channels all of Tony’s early influences, from the haunting atmospheres of Pink Floyd and Genesis to the rebellious energy of Alice Cooper and the timeless harmonies of The Beatles.
 
AWAKE is not just an album; it’s a sonic journey through Tony’s musical history. From the first note to the last, it’s an experience that transports you to a time when music wasn’t just listened to, but felt in your bones. Every track on this album tells a story, each sound carefully crafted with precision and passion.
 
Tony Moore plays every instrument on AWAKE, except for the drums, which were laid down by Nashville legend Tommy Harden (currently playing for the iconic U.S. band Alabama). The album also features backing vocals from Tommy and Lorrie Harden and Ilona Toteva, adding rich layers to the already powerful sound.
 
But AWAKE isn’t just confined to the studio. In 2021, Tony began presenting the album in an immersive live experience—combining his live performance with stunning video footage that accompanies each song. And in 2024, a significant milestone arrived when Tony was invited to open for his old friend Steve Harris’ band, British Lion, on their world tour, introducing AWAKE to a whole new generation of music lovers.
 
AWAKE is more than an album; it’s a testament to the creativity, talent, and vision of a true musical innovator. Whether you're a fan of Tony’s past work or discovering his music for the first time, AWAKE is a journey you don’t want to miss.
