Tony West, raised in the Bronx and influence by legendary bands like Ramones, Bad Brains, and NYHC, moved to Los Angeles at the age of 19. His journey in the music scene began with notable collaborations with artists such as Todd Youth (Murphy's Law/Danzig) and Kevin Wood of Malfunkshun.
In 1998, a pivotal moment occurred when Tony attended the first Saliva gig with drummer Paul Crosby in Memphis. This event sparked a lifelong friendship and eventual collaboration. In 2014, Tony recorded with Saliva and Jon E. Love (Love/Hate), further cementing his place in the rock music world.
In 2006, Tony forged his own path and founded Blacklist Union. The band's sound is a unique blend of influences from Stone Temple Pilots, Guns N' Roses, Malfunkshun, and Mother Love Bone, creating a distinctive shamanistic rock style that has garnered a dedicated fanbase.
