By MARTI MENDENHALL // Musician, production manager, engineer, singer, beatboxer Tony Hurerta LOVES to cook, especially with Marti!
Today on Marti’s Music Kitchen, the Fun Cooking Podcast with Creative People, Where Anything Can Happen, we’re joined in the kitchen by a brilliant star of sound engineers. Tony Huerta – the production management, audio engineering, vocals and beatbox extraordinaire. Tony is currently the production manager and sound engineer for the Grammy Award-winning acapella band Take 6, and has worked with notable artists like Stevie Wonder, Quincy Jones, Amy Grant and Brian McKnight…but that’s only the start of the list!
You may also know Tony as a singer and professional beatboxer, who led his acapella band Urban Method to the finale of NBC show, The Sing Off.
“As a father, if you talk about food like you don’t like it, then they automatically won’t like it…and that’s how I raise my kids. So they eat whatever I put on the table.
A little known fact about Tony though, is that he LOVES to cook – especially for his kids! On the MMK menu today? Tony’s own recipe for the Salmon Oscar; a quick and simple dinner of salmon and crab over angel hair pasta with a side of cheesy parmesan mushrooms.
