Tony Oller has been acting and singing for 7 years. He discovered a love of performing at age 9 when he was cast in a community theater production of "Grease". He has since progressed to television, independent/industrial films, national commercials and Equity theater in Houston and Los Angeles. Although he stumbled into the entertainment business, it quickly became his passion. Tony learned how incredibly tough it can be but he decided to live by the motto "Always dream. Never give up." Through years of professional training and hard work he is realizing his goals of working in feature film and television. Based upon his work in Los Angeles, he has been invited to join the prestigious Screen Actors Guild. As a testament to hope and perseverance, Tony has landed a lead role in a network television series. After wishing upon many stars (and going on over 250 auditions), fate stepped in to see him through. He plays 'Danny' in a new Disney Channel comedy short series called "As The Bell Rings"! The show premiered on August 26, 2007. New episodes air on Fridays at 6:55pm CT (7:55pm ET/PT) on The Disney Channel with various episodes rerunning daily.
Equal to acting is his love of music. He has sung on several television shows: "Star Search", "Showtime At The Apollo" and "The Jenny Jones Christmas Special". Besides singing (he's been a vocal student for 6 years), Tony also takes piano and guitar lessons and enjoys playing his drums and his saxophone (alto and tenor). He was a member of his school concert band for 4 years and was in marching band in his freshman year. Tony has another goal to become a recording artist and has previously worked with two interested music producers during his stays in L.A.
His dance training includes hip-hop and tap dancing (with some requisite ballet) in his early youth. As a young teen, he was a proud member of Planet Funk's Slam Squad hip hop dance troupe (Jason Anderson, choreographer) and has taken master classes in hip-hop dance from Wade Robson and Shane Sparks in L.A. He recently trained at Planet Funk with Jason Anderson who also teaches in New York City.
Tony is solidly guided by the three most important things in life: Faith, Family and Friends. He's proud to be a regular fun-loving guy who attends public high school and maintains an A-B average. At school Tony belongs to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (where he occasionally sings at the morning meetings) and Key Club (He helped paint a Habitat for Humanity home and he earned over 50 total service hours in 2007, many for his work with Cross Wind Productions, a teen film ministry program). Over the years he has also been involved in Drama Club, Higher Dimensions, Spanish Club and Storytellers Club.
Tony has been named one of "50 Hottest Male Stars" in the Winter 2007 issue of Teen Magazine. Also, he will be featured in a comprehensive interview in Popstar! Magazine.
