In high school, young Tino continued to play the very same instruments in the band and in music concerts. Although Tino was able to play instruments well, he wanted to learn more, so he learned how to read and write the music he was playing in high school along with other songs from his older brother, Kelvin Jones- a famous song writer and producer, who was not only a backup singer for Patti Labelle, and Kenny Loggins, but a trumpet player for Earth, Wind, and Fire. After many years of practicing, playing, reading, and writing music, Tino wanted to do this professionally. He began making beats, writing songs, and working on the turn tables. Making money off his craft gave him another idea: become a DJ, so that’s exactly what he did.
