Tony & The Kiki

Tony & The Kiki

The Queens from Queens! Tony & The Kiki is a New York City born and bred powerhouse band that exploded onto the scene like a supernova of sequins, sass, and sorcery. They blend gritty NYC glamour, disco decadence, and high-voltage anthems into an irresistible force of fabulosity. Their soul-shaking live shows, as well as their unapologetic songwriting, have earned them notable acclaim, captivating audiences from the underground to the world stage.

The glam rock band has garnered praise from pop icons like Lady Gaga, Celine Dion & Cyndi Lauper, rock goddess Grace Slick, press outlets like CLASH & EARMILK (among others), even reaching outside their corner of the genre to gain praise from Fred Durst of all people. With over 200,000 followers across platforms their music has been featured globally, gaining syncs on major networks like ESPN as well as the Australian TV series ‘Colin From Accounts’.

Founded by Tony (Anthony Alfaro, vocals) and The Kiki (Rodney Bush, keys) in 2021 after over a decade of friendship and music making, they weave their magic by drawing on legends like Blondie, Queen, and Scissor Sisters, filtering it all through their unique synergy and creating a world that calls to the enchantments of yesteryear as well as being very much in 2025…and beyond. Fronting the band, Tony not only defies gender but also shatters the boundaries of genre and logic itself with their vocal pyrotechnics and spellbinding presence. A vocalist like no other! Tony is also featured monthly as a guest vocalist with Brian Newman (Lady Gaga’s longtime band leader) and his all star band for the iconic AFTER DARK series at the infamous NYC club, The Box, solidifying their reputation as a magnetic, genre-defying performer.

Tony & The Kiki are often referred to as the “Yassifacation of Rock’n’Roll” and “NYC’s most arena-ready band” who are ready to “MAKE ROCK CVNTY AGAIN”. Signing to Tomboi Records in 2024, the band is now set to blast their unbridled electricity and queer joie de vivre from the mountaintops with their newly recorded EP ‘Fornication Under Consent Of Queens (Volume 1)’.

So, now the only question left is…
