## Tony Banks Net Worth

Anthony Louis Banks, known as Tony Banks, holds an estimated net worth of $50 million. Tony Banks is a renowned musician and a founding member of the band Genesis. Born on March 27, 1950, in East Hoathly, Sussex, England, his music career started in 1967.

Tony Banks, one of five siblings born to Nora and John Banks, showed a talent for music early on. He excelled in mastering various musical instruments, beginning with classical piano training, followed by self-taught guitar. His true flair for keyboard instruments became evident through his career with Genesis.

After attending Charterhouse School, where he intended to pursue a career in math, physics, and chemistry, his passion for music led him to form a rock band called The Garden Wall, along with fellow student Peter Gabriel, who became the lead singer, and Chris Stewart, the drummer. The group merged with another school band named The Anon, consisting of guitarists Mike Rutherford and Anthony Phillips, and together they formed Genesis.

Genesis released their first studio album, “From Genesis to Revelation,” in 1969 with Decca Records, but it failed to make an impact. Undeterred, the band signed with Charisma Records and released the album “Trespass” in 1970, with Banks taking a prominent role as a songwriter and keyboardist.

The band’s breakthrough came with the release of their fourth studio album, “Foxtrot,” in 1972, which contributed significantly to Banks’s net worth. Throughout Genesis’s existence, Banks remained a key member, recording fifteen studio albums, several EPs, and live albums. Some of their most successful albums were “Abacab” (1981), “Genesis” (1983), and “We Can’t Dance” (1991).

Alongside Genesis, Banks also pursued a solo career and composed film scores for various movies. He continues to tour with Genesis and released a classical album, “Six Pieces for Orchestra,” in 2012.

Banks has been married to Margaret McBain since 1972, and they have two children. The couple resides in London.
