Tony J is a Latin Urban singer from Miami, Florida, who is breaking barriers in the Latin Urban music genre with his unique blend of sounds, and his high energy live shows.  TonyJ is Colombian and was raised in a musical family, son of renowned Colombian musician Antonio Manuel De Las Salas.  Being in a musical family, he listened to many different types of Latin genres at a young age, exposing him to great singers like Daddy Yankee, Pitbull, Arcangel, and J Balvin.  He began playing Latin percussion and performing at a very young age. Upon realizing his passion for performing, it inspired him to pursue a career as a singer/songwriter. 
 
TonyJ’s very first live performance was at the age of 12, where he covered songs of various Latin genres, including Salsa, Merengue, Cumbia, and Vallenato.  TonyJ recorded his first studio production as a solo artist at the age of 16, with his debut track “Party In My House.”  He then recorded 4 original songs and released these tracks as an EP No Es Un Juego.  Since 2014, he has been hard at work between the studio and school, where TonyJ is pursuing his degree in music business.  In the past three years, he has released his singles “Sin Tu Amor” and “Mala” ft. Endi.  He is currently working on his latest project, in hopes of releasing his first album, which will be a Latin fusion of different genres with the focus on Reggaeton.
 
As a solo act, TonyJ has opened up for premier artists like Nicky Jam, J Alvarez, and Kevin Roldan. At the age of 22, TonyJ continues to push the limits of his musicality and creative engines.  His fusion of hip-hop, Reggaeton, and R&B into his music, will continue to push the envelope in the Latin Urban music scene, and makes him one of the most promising new acts in the genre.

At a very early age, Walter Capote found a love for music. When he was only two years old, in his native Cuba, he was banging on pots and pans with wooden spoons, as though they were drums, trying to imitate his uncle whom was a professional drummer. Shortly after, his family moved to Miami, where he further pursued his musical talents.

In later years he joined the band playing various other musical instruments such as the trumpet, keyboard, and drums. When his junior high school needed someone to provide music for a dance they were hosting, but had limited funds, they asked if he could offer his already extensive music collection. He gladly agreed. Little did he know that this would be a turning point in his life.

After this successful school dance he found that he enjoyed making people dance, and he hurried home to tell his parents of his accomplishment. They encouraged him to continue his newly found passion by buying him his first DJ equipment, with the promise that with every party he did, he would give them a percentage for their investment. From this agreement DJ Walter was born into the world of the DJ.

He soon started acquiring new and important contacts at various local banquet halls and night clubs. At the age of 15, he started playing music at a local hot spot in his hometown. By age 17 he had already played at many of south Florida`s popular nightclubs. He found that the true art of DJing was playing what the crowd wanted to hear and keeping them wanting more!

A few years later, he started spinning at Miami`s #1 radio station, at the time, Power 96.5 FM. Playing along side of such popular DJ`s such as DJ Mohammed Morretta, Lazaro Mendez (DJ Laz), Phil Jones, and DJ Rene Carrasco, he sharpened his skills.

Since then he has been gaining popularity on the DJ scene, and has performed at a number of nightclubs and events through out Miami, such as:

Alcazaba * Barcode * Billboard Live (Dulce Ultra Lounge) * Blue Lounge * Bricks (Voyage) * Café Mystiques * Café Nostalgia * Centro * Chispa * Cielo * Cigar Bar (Pines) * Club 1235 (Level/Mansion) * Club 609 * Club Deep * Crystal Night Club * Discotekka * Flavour * Gambits Lounge * Jade * La Bodeguita Del Medio * Lakes Café * Mamajuana Café * Martini Bar * Metropolis * Mezzanote * Nikki Beach * Nocturnal * Oxygen Lounge * Pearl * POST * Quench Nightclub * Rick's Bar (Club Escape) * River Lounge * Satchmo's Bar & Grill * Space Miami * Suzanne‘s In The Grove * The Billiard Club (Miami Lakes) * The Living Room * Torrero @ Bayside * UVA * Valentino's (Quench/Avalon) * Vanilla Bar * YAGE * and many more...
