This is Tico and his human Frank Maglio.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They chill in Florida. Frank plays the guitar, Tico sings along better than most karaoke attempts at these classic rock and roll jams.<\/p>\n

Apparently this newfound musical duo was launched during the pandemic lockdown.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne day I was playing guitar back in March, during the second week of lockdown,\u201d began Maglio, \u201cand Tico started screaming like he wanted attention, so instead of throwing the towel in, I grabbed my guitar \u2026 and sat down by him and started playing, and I was like, \u2018I think he\u2019s singing.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Tico’s talents are featured on Maglio’s YouTube channel which has brought him and his feathered frontman some degree of fame. They have been featured live on Kelly Clarkson’s talkshow and a recent tweet from NBA player Rex Chapman, (Hornets, Heat, Suns) threw thousands of more fans their way.<\/p>\n

Tico has quite a range, but seems to prefer classic and contemporary rock and roll. His ‘set-list’ includes, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Guns n’ Roses, Bon Jovi, U2, Coldplay, and The Beatles.<\/p>\n

The bird has got taste. And his owner has some decent guitar chops as well.<\/p>\n
