Bio / Background

Tony Spada is best known for being the creative force and one of the founding members of the American prog rock group ' HOLDING PATTERN '. Tony Spada is a masterful

guitarist, balancing advanced technique with a diversity of styles, from solo classical guitar to power trio rock, into intricately textured ensemble pieces. Holding Pattern's first

album was released in 1981 this instrumental powerhouse that combined the best of Happy The Man, Yes and Steve Hackett. And a healthy dose of American jazz rock fusion like Return to Forever and Dixie Dregs to name a few.

In summary a jem from the early 80's that all fans of 70's progressive rock will surely love.

Holding Pattern's first attempt at adding vocals came with the song Mercenary, sung by Tony himself, was released as a single and video in 1983. The video received airplay on MTV and USA Networks "Night Flight" program.
