Anthony Gargiula is an 10 year old Glenmont, NY native. He started singing at age 2 and has been singing ever since. His first public appearance came when he was 5 years old and entered a Radio Disney singing competition at Crossgates Mall in Albany, New York.
Anthony sang “Midnight Train To Georgia.” He won and received time in a recording studio to cut a demo and also free head shots.
In May 2006 is when Anthony got his big break. He entered a local Radio Disney "High School Musical" singing competition and won. Little did his parents know that this was a national competition as well. Anthony's video along with other finalists from around the country was sent to Los Angeles to the Radio Disney Corporate Offices. Anthony came in second place in the country and was awarded an engraved trophy for his efforts.
From that day forward, Anthony's life has not been the same. He has performed on the Today Show, the Ellen Show - twice, and was Ellen DeGeneres' American Idol correspondant in Los Angeles on the red carpet where he interviewed Season 7 finalists in 2008.
Anthony is the youngest performer to ever sing at Carnegie Hall in New York City. He sang the National Anthem at two Knick's basketball games at Madison Square Garden, the Belmont Stakes, and Boston Bruins hockey games.
Anthony has also performed at many other events, including: Siena College men’s and women’s basketball games, Albany Patroons basketball games, The River Rats many Radio Disney sponsored events, was live on the air on WGNA with "Shawn and Richie", at Captain Tim Mosier's Memorial service, at nursing homes, churches, at high school basketball games while in Florida and was also a finalist on the CBS Early Show's "Living Room Live" - kid's edition in January 2007.
2010 is filled with many new and exciting engagements.
Life has been busy and full of adventures. Anthony's dream is to be a huge singing star so he can share his gift of song with the whole world.
When asked what the future holds Anthony said, "I would love to be on Radio Disney some day and maybe on American Idol when I’m 16 years old. That is a long way away for me. I want to famous long before that.”
There you have it, stay tuned for more amazing things!!!
