Las Vegas and Atlantic City headliner Tony Pace is coming to Union City.
He will close out the 2017-18 concert series for the Community Concert Association of Union City/Obion County on March 17 at 7:30 p.m. at the Union City Civic Auditorium. Individual tickets are $20 each and will be available at Lanzer Printing and Office Supply in downtown Union City and at the door.
Among his many song selections are “Achy Breaky Heart,” “Always on My Mind,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Can’t Touch This,” “Danny Boy,” “End of The World As We Know It,” “Fly Me To The Moon” and “Lady Is A Tramp.”
In addition to formal studies at Boston University and Berklee College of Music, 40 years of experience has built him a resume that industry leaders consider astounding.
Pace’s theater experience includes work as a stage hand, actor, lighting director, sound engineer and producer/director.
His performance credits include touring with the showband Boston Pace, Growing Up Italian, performance in fundraisers and emcee work among other things.
His other accomplishments include work with video production, voice-over talent, event planning, recording industry executive, music producer, commercial and jingle writing and production and writing children’s programs.
Pace’s life in entertainment began at age 6 and was followed up with an astounding 13 theatrical productions and an eight-piece band schedule by the age of 18.
Philanthropic efforts stay at the core of Pace’s values, as visits to the bedsides of veterans at VA Hospital became a catalyst for future fundraising endeavors.
Pace began touring the United States and Canada shortly after with his high energy showband, Boston Pace.
The configuration of his one-man show format began in the ’90s and incorporated a level of production which was previously unheard of.
He highlighted his ability as a musician not only in his live performances, but also in his studio work.
His success continued through 2004 when a two-day contract at Resorts Casino in Atlantic City extended into a nine-month long residency.
A move to Las Vegas then landed him in a headliner position in the main showroom at The Tropicana on the Las Vegas Strip. He enjoyed a prolonged run at the Greek Isle in Vegas.
