Soppy & the Sentimentals is the new album from the eclectic performer/composer, Tony Penultimate. Tony is best known for his towering performances (he’s 6’8”!) with the international touring group, the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. Their most recent album, “The Secret of Life” featured one of Tony’s songs - “The Stage”, and the band toured Japan in March, as well as a sold out run at the Barbican Theatre, London.

Tony has performed most notably with Vic Reeves (a clip of them dancing on the Shakin Stevens video - What do you want to make those eyes at me for - still appears regularly on TV); sung with Jools Holland’s Big Band as well as the 60’s ukulele star Tiny Tim. Tony also made an ill-advised appearance on the Des O’Connor TV show “Pot of Gold”, causing the TV critic Garry Bushell to label him “ a long streak of paralysed pistachio”.

His songs have appeared in shows by the cabaret singer, Kate Dimbleby (Music To Watch Boys By) and more recently on the album, Bee for Bass by the bassist Andy Hammil, which also featured Mark Murphy, Ursula Rucker and Carleen Anderson. His last album “Mainly Manly Music” was admired by songwriters as diverse as Sir Tim Rice to Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees and is soon to be reissued due to continued interest.
