The entity known as Heart & Stone was originally formed by singer, songwriter and driving force, Tony Anton in the fall of 1989. During the next seven years, Heart & Stone performed relentlessly both as opening acts and Headliners to thousands of faithful fans. The energy and experience cultivated during this time was captured on the groups first CD entitled 'Eternity'. Eternity was well received by radio stations both in Canada and Europe. The video for the song 'Ocean Blue' was also put into rotation by Much Music.
