I have been writing and recording music since February 2000 and recently, an international artist manager and record company director came across some recordings of mine that I had placed on the internet. The first thing that he was most impressed with was my voice – both the quality of the tone and the beauty and emotion in my singing. Since then, this international manager has enabled me to have signed a recording contract with an emerging international record label; consequently, I will be releasing my first single overseas later this year.

Taso holds a Bachelor of music degree in Guitar Performance which he completed at the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne Victoria. He has also studied guitar at Melbourne University and the Brisbane Conservatorium of music ( where he is originally from, in Queensland). In 2002 Taso was the esteemed winner of the Austral Salon Scholarship.
Taso continues to perform extensively around Melbourne and has performed solo guitar recitals in such venues as Chapel off Chapel, Athenaeum Theatre, National Art Gallery, Melbourne Museum, Botanical Gardens, St Peters Church and within the VCA campus itself.
As well as having been in residency at the Versace Hotel on the Gold Coast, Taso has also been invited to play for such exclusive guests as World renowned concert guitarists John Williams, Slava Grygorian and Rupert Murdoch at his own private estate.
Alongside his accomplished skills on Guitar, Taso is also a professional singer. Having been involved with the Melbourne Opera in 2003-2004 during which Taso was casted in 'La Traviata' and 'The Pearl Fishers' as a tenor.

With the vocal training that I have received from Antonio at AML Golden Voice Studio, I had the confidence in my voice to go for the Jazz course audition I have been wanting to attend for years. I succeeded and now all the closed doors I spent years looking at are opening.
Finally my singing career is taking off and I'm heading in the right direction through my life. Soon I will be starting a band of my own!
Thank you Antonio!

From aching throat and tortured muscles after two to three hours of singing (pushing for sound, for power) before receiving Antonio's help, to concentrated calmness and soaring freedom while mesmerising small audiences after Antonio's intervention and miraculous help. Antonio has taught me to "hear" my body, to "feel" my vocal sound and thus to release my "TRUE VOICE" : cleansed of muscle tension, supported by "open - throatedness" and effortless breathing.
Now girls gaze and men wonder. You can see the quiet "WOW" in their eyes. At the Espy, the Hard Rock Cafe, the Evelyn, the Vineyard, the Fringe Festival and more.
The last twelve months have been an amazing release!
