Troy Dillon Chiappone is a young singer of Sicilian/Austrian descent who is a spellbinding live performer. His mannerisms will remind you of the artists he tributes to and his fantastic voice will leave you breathless. If you are in the audience you will think you are listening to Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Elvis Presley, Bobby Darin, Tom Jones or whoever he is covering. Troy is not only a singer but a bold actor with entertainer’s blood and his own unique personal style.
Troy grew up a short distance from Lake Ontario in the small town of Wilson New York. Early in college he took the little spending money he had to pay for voice lessons on a whim. He trained under Opera Singer Lisa Surace from Niagara Falls who gave him his first taste of a Frank Sinatra album. At the age of 19 he decided that he would sing a few of the songs from the record because at the time it seemed “cooler” to him than singing an opera song. So for his first live performance in front of an audience of one-hundred people, he stood alone on the stage and belted out a few songs such as “Summer Wind” and “Witchcraft”…the audience loved it. Since then he has performed at hundreds of local restaurants, bars, clubs, breweries, and private events throughout Western New York and Canada.
Troy is now living in Punta Gorda on the Gulf Coast of Florida! He is willing to travel but entertains throughout Southwest Florida!
His rich light baritone voice has been used in local advertisements, and he has performed live for special events such as “Vegas Style New Years” as seen on Channel 7 News. He has made weddings, and anniversaries special for many lucky couples. Troy is focused on performing the highest quality songs with soul. He uses his voice and personality to capture the hearts and minds of people who love quality entertainment.
