Cloud Records Podcast Appearance
In this episode of Cloud Record Music Podcast, Maurine McFarlane sits down with Dallas-Fort Worth songwriter and producer Tony G. Turner to explore the heart and craft behind his music.

In the Media: SoulTracks Choice Cuts
Dallas-Fort Worth based songwriter and producerTony G. Turner has been making great music under the radar for a few years now.

In the Media: Rolling Hype
It started in a basement in the Midwest — just a kid with a passion, a record player, and a borrowed spotlight. Tony G Turner remembers those impromptu family talent shows like they were yesterday: him channeling the Jackson 5, his sister covering Natalie Cole, both soaking up applause that felt bigger than the room.
In the Media: The Urban Influencer
Tony G Turner is an artist whose sound is rooted in R&B but reaches beyond into jazz and rock. Born in Minden, Louisiana and raised in Shreveport, he also spent part of his childhood in Dayton, Ohio where his love for music first took shape. It was in his aunt and uncle’s basement that he began exploring sounds and building the passion that would later define his artistry.
Latest Release: Sweet Spot
You know that feeling – when something is just right. Not too much. Not too little. A comfortable stretch – like the world leaning into you. That’s the velvet friction of a groove that gets under your skin and stays there. A rhythm that doesn’t ask – it tells. “Sweet Spot,” a new track from Tony Turner. Out now — everywhere music sounds this good. Sounds good. Feels even better.
