About

Antonio Atsuya, Trumpeter, Composer, and Arranger, is currently living and performing around the New York City Area. Though born in Los Angeles, his love for music began when he moved to New York as a child. Some of the first Jazz artists Antonio became infatuated with were players like Dizzy Gillespie and Louis Armstrong but now aims to merge his culture with music. Recently his endeavors search to encapsulate the marriage between Jazz, Japanese folk music and Argentine folk music.

Throughout Antonio’s career he has been blessed with many music opportunities. In the summer of 2023, Antonio, along with a band called Third Street Collective toured Costa Rica. Later in 2023 and 2024 he had the pleasure of working alongside Willow Smith.
