Although you may not recognize the name, you’ve probably heard his music, especially if you’ve ever caught Fox TV’s “America’s Most Wanted” or ABC’s and Court TV’s “Final Justice” or the internationally syndicated show “Manhunter”.

As a member of “The Boyzz”, Tony scored a major label deal with CBS/EPIC Records. While in the studio recording their first album, “Too Wild To Tame” (produced by Ron and Howard Albert at Criteria Studios near Miami Florida), Tony spent as much time as possible on the other side of the glass learning all he could about the recording process. As they toured nationally promoting their album (with bands like Aerosmith, Meatloaf, Rush), it became clear that the Boyzz were a powerhouse live, but weak on material that would generate radio airplay and album sales. That’s when Tony got serious about writing radio friendly songs and formed the “B’zz”, a more diverse commercially viable group. Applying what he learned in the studio, Tony became the bands in–house producer and developed over 40 songs, a strong following and the unique distinction of being the only unsigned act to ever appear on Dick Clark’s American Bandstand. That got Epic’s attention and another record deal. Their first album “Get Up” (produced by Tom Werman at the Village Recorder and Record Plant in LA), garnered extensive national airplay, charted in Billboard and produced a music video that was added to MTV’s play list.

Leaving the band days behind, Tony reinvented himself and took his career in a new direction. With every new composition, it became obvious that his creations were inappropriate for rock radio but right on target for the television/film industry. After two years of scoring industrial/corporate videos, Tony got lucky and landed a gig as a full time composer for a new prime-time show syndicated on a new network. At the time, Tony had no idea this would lead to a project that would last over a decade and is still going strong. The network turned out to be Fox and the show turned out to be America's Most Wanted. They needed music that was happy, sad, angry, sympathetic, ugly, beautiful, horrific, triumphant, every conceivable emotion, every ethnic flavor, every musical genre, you name it, they wanted it and they got it. Tony expanded his sonic palette and delivered score after score, week after week, year after year. Over 15 years and 900 plus episodes later, Tony Hall has created a hell of allot of music that criminals don't want you to hear! As host John Walsh says, “You can run but you can’t hide” from this composers captivating music.

Currently Tony is still producing music for America’s Most Wanted via his own publishing company, Post Dramatic Music/BMI that specializes in dramatic production music.
