Toni’s Musical Journey
Toni Bellini, a rockstar at heart from Sault St. Marie, hit the stage at the age of five in Italy and never looked back. With her soul steeped in rock ‘n’ roll, she’s rocked cover bands with her raw, untrained voice, channeling the greats like Cher and the power ballads of the '80s. Juggling numbers by day as an accountant, she’s a front woman by night, belting out tunes in a medley of languages. Her life’s a track list of contrasts. Now, she’s amped to get back to the club scene, guitar riffs in tow, ready to inspire new generations of artists with her music legacy. 🎸

New Release
Written by Author: Mike Beggs
Thirty-three years in, Rock ‘n Roll firebrand Toni Bellini unveiled her new band “Toni” on May 17 at Caven’s Alley Bar, in south Mississauga.
The Soo native led her well-heeled 4-piece through intense versions of everything from “What’s Going On”, to “Creep”, to “Personal Jesus”, moving as nicely as she hit the notes. And when the stage was opened up to jammers, she kept the merriment high – hitting the dance floor, when she wasn’t singing backup.
“Toni” returns to Caven’s Alley Bar at 9 p.m. on Friday, July 5 at 585 Lakeshore Rd. E. (at Cawthra Rd.), playing your Classic and Contemporary favourites.

With thirty-three years of experience fronting GTA cover bands, Toni Bellini has vocal versatility, and stage presence to spare. But then, you might say the vivacious Sault St. Marie native got an early start.
"I was a year-and-a-half," she laughs. " I couldn't speak English, but I could definitely sing in English."
"My brother played the accordion, my sister Rose sang, while Mary made all the clothes for my father" she continued. "My Mom played harmonica and was a lovely poet, whilst my Dad played the ukulele and sang like Dean Martin. So, he and my mother would serenade each other.”
On holidays in Italy with her dad, she first climbed on stage at age 5. She perennially placed first in her hometown at the Kiwanis music festival , and appeared in a production of "Oklahoma" by the age of 16. Bellini never took vocal lessons but was a natural born singer.
So, who was her biggest influence?
"Cher," she says, without hesitation. " I used to watch "The Sonny and Cher Show" when I was 7. She had the type of voice you couldn't duplicate. Her personality is the coolest and she’s the reason I learned Rock’n Robbin.”
From there, there were pop chanteuses like Pat Benatar, Alannah Miles, Alanis Morissette, Shania Twain, Avril Lavigne, Celine Dion, Madonna, Whitney Houston, and Mariah Carey.
She also enjoys singing and writing new and all genres of music but does not hesitate to embrace the heavier metal scene.
Bellini relocated to Toronto in 1983, planning to study Comedy but in the end opted for a career in business by day as a controller running multi-million dollar companies. She married at 20 and had two daughters, while holding down her day job and gigging at night.
"It's an interesting life I’ve led," she muses.
"(Music is) a great stress reliever. I love being with people."
Most notably, she fronted the '80's/Top 40 band The Trades from 2006-'09 (doing Journey, U2, Guns 'N Roses, etc.). For several years she was also a featured guest at The Harp jam in Port Credit, hosted by Juno-nominated singer/songwriter Tom Barlow.
Just check out the polish she puts on Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop", her affecting rasp on 4 NonBlonde’s "What's Up", and the soul and sheer vocal power displayed on Amanda Marshall's "Let It Rain".
By day, she's a Certified Management Accountant. "I’ve been told there's a connection between numbers, and numbers on stage," she jokes. Bellini also spent many years singing with the wedding bands Dusk, and Vienna -requiring her to learn songs in English, Italian, Spanish, and French.
Surprisingly, she says it wasn't all that tough.
"No, I'm fluent in Italian. That was my native tongue, so I'm good at languages. I find them all very similar to Italian," she explains.
Having passed the music bug on to her daughters whose melodic voices take after their mother, daughters Alesia (who plays piano), and Kristen (acoustic and electric guitar), Toni now hopes to get back to playing in the clubs. And she has penned and recorded originals like the catchy "Naughty Or Nice", and the radio-friendly ballad, "You're The One For Me".
"I’ve written a lot of inspirational material for the younger generation," she adds.
“Thanks speed to God” she says in the church where she practices with her choir 2 times a week combined of men and women. “I’m a lucky woman”.
