Tony Spinner

Tony Spinner (born June 9, 1963 in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, United States) is an American rock and blues singer and guitarist, best known for his collaborations with Toto and Paul Gilbert. Spinner, who toured with Toto from 1999 until their temporary hiatus in 2008, was personally selected by David Paich as a backup guitarist and backing vocalist and would perform lead vocals on the song "Stop Loving You," originally performed by former Toto member Joseph Williams. When Toto reformed in 2010, Williams rejoined the band. As a result, Spinner was not invited to re-join the band for the tour.
