HISTORY:
Anthony was born in San Francisco, and his parents were musicians in the San Francisco Symphony, and Anthony spent many a night watching them rehearse, and leanred violin at the age of 7, cello at 10, classical piano at 12, Upright bass at 15, and the acoustic guitar at 16. He even played in the Symphony at the age of seventeen at a show in 1999, when he played in the symphony at the infamous "S&M" concert by Metallica, where they performed with the San Francisco symphony. After playing there, he realized that classical music was not his calling.
He took up the electric guitar a week later, and then realized he wanted a deeper sound, and already knew the acoustic guitar, so he bought a bass. It was quite different than an upright bass, but he loved it. He also learned the drums in his spare time. He was in a band with a school friend of for two years, when the band broke up. He joined a grunge band called "San Fran Hell" two months later, and played with them for seven years, and their last show was in Seattle, where an odd man named Neal Obain saw the opportunity to add this great bassist to his band, and since the band was disbanding, he invited him.
Anthony went home, and packed all of his gear, and wrote new lyrics, and relaxed for a month, considering he had enough money to last him a year. He jammed in a homeade recording studio he made, making personal demo tapes, and eventually realized he couldn't just wait around. He wrote a letter, considering he didn't get the man's phone number, just his studio address where he was supposed to show up, thinking Anthony lived in Seattle. He told him how he would join and how he had a recording studio in San Fransisco. He got a letter back, telling him to go to a studio in Albany, where Neal's new house was, and that that would be the new band studio. He grabbed his bass and his collection of Kiss, Metallica, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and Aerosmith CDs and went to the studio, excited that he was joining an already signed band.iguessitsjustasillysongaboutyouAPPEARANCE: He always wears either dress shirts or band t-shirts, and tends to tuck his t-shirts in. His dark brown hair is always kept down to his shoulders, though he puts it into a ponytail during formal occasions, and has numerous tattoos. He is hardly ever seen without facial hair, and has a pair of aviator shades that he tends to wear.
