Tony Bellus (born April 17, 1936, in Chicago, Illinois; died January 21, 2025) was a musician and vocalist best known for his self-composed song "Robbin' The Cradle," which he recorded in Chicago in 1959. The song achieved significant success, reaching the top charts and staying there for 26 weeks. Although considered a one-hit wonder, Bellus's musical style blended elements of country and rockabilly with Italian influences, particularly showcased through his accordion playing. He lived in Dunedin, Florida, and also released music under the name T.J. Bellus.
