His unique technique, speed and finger dexterity is amazing. Some of these techniques involve ~ 12 string harmonic finger tapping (!), acoustic slapping, upside down finger pickin’ blues, he even plays guitar with his dreads~! After a successful 2008 East and West Coast tour/travel of Australia, A.J has landed in Victoria to spend 2009 touring/playing festival gigs and recording a new CD. All of Anthony's songs have been self recorded in his home built studio. Currently 24 years of age, he has one self recorded EP to his name, however his passion lies in performing live and when on stage the true meaning of his music comes alive. As a songwriter, Anthony's music extends beyond the boundaries of set genres. He produces, from the first note, an intensive atmosphere filled with overwhelming melodies from the soul. Meaningful lyrics. Technically stunning. Anthony has performed countless gigs and appeared at numerous festivals including the Byron Bay Bluesfest, Melbourne City's Sustainable Living Festival, Splendour in the Grass (Byron Bay) Port Fairy Folk Festival, Queenscliff Music Festival, as well as charity festivals such as Little Buckly Festival, and The One Day Out festival. His Live act is quickly becoming widely respected throughout Australia. His passion is music, his pride is guitar, and with a growing fan base, Anthony is definately an up and coming local artist worth hearing.
