Tony Marino

Tony Marino is a multi-genre pianist, composer, and recording artist whose music blends jazz with Latin jazz, tango, world music, funk, rock, and reggae. Active since the mid-1970s, he has released 25 albums of original compositions, earning Global Music Awards recognition for his genre-bridging work. His January 2026 release, In A Jam, infuses jazz with reggae rhythms inspired by his honeymoon in Jamaica, continuing a career defined by versatility, resilience, and expressive storytelling. The Jazz Album, Tony Marino’s second release of 2026, is a tribute CD honoring Breno Sauer, Neusa Sauer, and Claudio Roditi. Projected for release on May 28, 2026—celebrating Claudio Roditi’s 80th birthday—the album features ten original compositions inspired by Marino’s longtime connections to Brazilian jazz traditions and mentorship.
