Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Tony Molina. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Hi Tony , thanks for joining us today. We’d love to hear about the things you feel your parents did right and how those things have impacted your career and life.
My parents are from Cuba and always wanted me to have a better life then them once I grew older. My Dad always wanted to be a musician but feared it wouldn’t keep the lights on so he became an account. He taught me to follow your dreams and passions because one day they can become true. As time passed I felt I needed to live up to his dreams and desires and I honestly never looked back. We now have 3 children of our own and are teaching our kids to follow dreams and passions. Thanks Dad!
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
Hello Beautiful Souls!
I’m Tony Molina of TLooP Artist Entertainment Group. At age 4, I can vividly remember when my Grandfather Juan Manuel gave me a little kids toy recorder ( remember those little things you would blow into?) Well that’s when I knew I was going to be doing this the rest of my life. Music came so easily, so naturally, when everything else felt so hard in school.
Music has always freed my soul and has been one of the best methods for me to focus. My entire life I have struggled with Extreme ADHD and like I said Music was and still is my medicine. I went on to play in the school band (alto saxophone) then later realized I love percussion so I joined more of the ADHD kids in the back of band room ( I felt right at home) I was alive and free again. Then In college studied percussion and Espanol. Today I work at a Middle School as a Family Advocate supporting families and students keeping a close eye on those kids that were like me in the early 1990’s.
Today you can find me anywhere from a large Night Club, Theater, Ballroom, Winery, Brewery, Wedding, Office Party, Music Festival or always uploading a new Video of music on our TLooP Youtube Channel as well.
TLooP is not just a solo live looping DJ & Entertainer, also offering a full band of amazing artists along with music licensing for clients to producer their own content copyright free. Having a Party, Wedding, Festival, Large Gathering TLooP is your guy!!!
I’m a Vibe Creator tapping right into the space of the energy and emotions present.
When I’m performing or Producing in the studio its my heart, passion and soul at work for you! I love this and You!!!
For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
Being an Artist is the expression of my life and soul. My music is mostly instrumental. Growing up and loving drums I would really only listen to the drummer and bassist. So most rewarding piece of playing instrumentals is seeing body language and reactions from an audience and seeing what people are doing while the music is playing. This is why I got into DJing to play music and see how people react.
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
My Father Roberto has been a huge motivation for me to keep doing this. He wanted to be a Musician but never really pursued it. So this one is for you Dad.
