Details:
Fourth album from the Canadian-born, now based in Nashville via Chicago singer/guitarist whose credo is to create vibrant, contemporary works of blues-based rock, soul and R&B. Produced by Jim Gaines (Stevie Ray Vaughan, Santana) every one of the 12 tracks on the new release bristles with that thrill of discovery and exploration, a testimony to the healing power of music to uplift, console, move and motivate the spirit. Most of the songs are Anthonys collaborations with other gifted writers, including Mark Selby (Dixie Chicks, Kenny Wayne Shepherd), Bruce McCabe (Johnny Lang, Bonnie Raitt), Tom Hambridge (Susan Tedeschi, Johnny Winter) and Jim Peterik (founder of both Ides of March and Survivor and hit writer for .38 Special, Sammy Hagar and many more). One of the key songs on the new CD is the searing, yet thoughtful "War On War". Another track central to the albums essence is "Bluebird". "Every CD an artist makes has a breakthrough song and 'Bluebird' was the song that came aout in this session," Anthony says. "It set the tone for the CD; when it was born it opened up the rest of the disc. Music is the medicine, I believe its a powerful soul sonic force."
