Tony Mangra was born in Albouystown, Guyana but grew up in the
village of Port Mourant on the Courentyne River. He left Guyana in
1982, migrating to the USA and brought with him a life long dream of
singing and recording music. He is a songwriter and plays the
guitar. His songs range from love ballads to compositions about his
roots. Because of his early influences, his music has a reggae
influence.
Guyana is located in South America but culturally it is a part of
the West Indies. Tony grew up in the countryside of Guyana listening
to music from India, rock steady (what has now evolved to what the
world knows as reggae), calypso and Guyanese folk music. Some of his
influences are Bob Marley, The Tradewinds and The Mighty Sparrow to
name a few. |
