Your Teacher
Hey, I’m Anthony!
I’m multi-genre singer-songwriter and producer. I’ve garnered millions of streams on Spotify, and currently write for 3 projects - “AGE of the BEAR” (solo folk), “Page 1” (hip-hop/R&B), and “Cubbage” (indie-rock).
I’ve written with grammy award-winning artist Scott Hoying from Pentatonix, and composed feature-length film scores for Emmy-nominated directors such as Ben Vogel.
Over the last decade, I’ve been lucky to have the opportunity to write and produce 100s of songs, release multiple full-length albums, and accept awards such as Best New Artist in 2018 from the LVMA awards.
When I was first writing, I wish someone had been there to guide me through things like lyricism and recording myself, so my goal is to help musicians navigate through the confusion of writing and recording for the first time, and help current songwriters to reach that next level.
