Introducing Anthony's Wiseguys

Anthony Parisella and his Wise Guys passionately inject their blend of Anglo Latin dance grooves throughout Melbourne at various Cafes, Bars, Restaurants and Clubs.

Like atomic energy, Anthony will infiltrate mind, body and soul! Sensual and exciting he has hearts throbbing, feet tapping and temperatures soaring.
Add to this his natural charisma combined with his smooth tones and you get a dynamic and thrilling performance. Though the regular band is a gang of seven Wise Guys, they offer anything from a soloist to 16 piece line-up to cater for any event and budget.
Anthony Parisella draws on the experience and creative talents of 7 incredible artists to bring you a musical celebration to remember.
Anthony has access to over 20 other well-respected musicians who are each creative, colourful and crazy at all times!! So if you want a bigger band - you got it!

Anthony's Wise Guys want audiences to be enthralled, energised, and impassioned. Their music is bumpy and grindy, fun, rhythmic and groovy, Latin and soulful, slow and fast, bursting to dance!
The band would tailor their music to your event - with the right line-up (to suit your budget), the right music at the right time (to suit your event), and they would even consider any special request.

Anthony is also an experienced Master of Ceremonies - just in case you need one of those as well...

...Having worked in the Entertainment industry for the last 28 years and have been at Channel 9 for 20 of those years, working with all the other TV networks, Film, Commercial production and Theatre, in particular Events.
I met and worked with Anthony Parisella at a Lillian Frank fundraiser at the Grand Hyatt some years ago. As a producer, I needed the band to work within tight time frames and as always ‘entertain’ the guest’s with a music repertoire that suited the ‘theme’ of the night, this Anthony did with aplomb!!!!!! I have since worked with him on numerous occasions without regret..Safe to say, anything you require he fits within parameters, costs, logistics, running sheet time frames and is Sooooo!!! Easy to communicate with. His band’s musical expertise is second to none, with all band members giving their 100% at all times, entertaining and colourful. This can always be complimented by additional costumes to suit the Theme with choreographed dance support..I can’t recommend him highly enough.

...When organsing our wedding, the music aspect was important for both my husband and I. Having a musical background myself I knew I wanted a band to give the day the most impact. I went along to watch the Wise Guys and they were fantastic. All accomplished muscisians, they really knew how to make great music. We were able to choose what piece band we wanted and whether we wanted them to MC. We were so impressed we chose to have a 6 piece band with Anthony as the MC. Everybody at the wedding commented how much they enjoyed the band and how well the MC did, lots of laughs and everyone got up and boogied. I highly reccommend the Wise Guys and they will ensure that evryone has a great night, including the bride and groom!!!! Thanks Wise Guys

Keep up the good work.

...I'd like to personally thank Anthony & The WiseGuys for an outstanding performance at our annual Hanging Rock Winery Festival. Anthony's Wise Guys played for us on 2 full days, and all the while kept the audience thoroughly entertained. Whilst everyone was enjoying the music, he also took the initiative to promote the wine and other goods sold on the day. Our guests could not help themselves but to get up and dance. They were thoroughly engaged, asking for requests and wanting more. We received great feedback from the guests and retailers and stated that they were extremely impressed with the band. Thanks to Anthony and his band of WiseGuys for an outstanding 2 days, we really appreciate your dedication and professionalism.
Andrew Kostas Sales & Events Manager Hanging Rock Winery

...I am writing to thank you for your involvement with the Johnston St Spanish Festival last weekend. Your role, as a musician and performer, was central to the success of the weekend. After all, what is a fiesta without any entertainment?
The crowd really came alive during your two performances. Latin music is developing a very strong following here in Melbourne, and given the crowds reaction to your songs, its clear your band is encouraging our community's Latin obsession. You certainly helped to teach Melbournians how to have a good time.
Lydia Brown Committee Member Johnston St Hispanic Fiesta
