In 2000, the Music Managers Foundation presented him with the Peter Grant Award.[4]
In his early career he promoted shows, with acts such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and the Who. Tony Smith went on to co-found (with Jon Crawley in 1977) the Hit & Run Music Publishing house, located in the United Kingdom.[5][6] Along with Hilary Shor, he has expanded into film production under the name Hit and Run Productions. As a film producer, he has produced the films Children of Men and Eye of the Beholder.
Smith is a historic car racer and has owned an Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato Sanction II Coupe, one of only four ever made, which in 2012 was auctioned by Bonhams for a record-breaking £1.2 million with fees.[7]
