Music was an integral part of his life unknown to him. At age 12, he joined the local church band as the drummer and that's where it all began. He was nurtured and mentored to eventually pick up the guitar and a little bit of bass guitar. At age 17, he moved to Chennai, India for a year and was an active part of the gospel scene.
In 2010 July, he moved to Kuala Lumpur to pursue his music educat
ion at the International College of Music, a Berklee International Network partner school. While in college, a change of heart made him switch to the bass guitar as his primary instrument from the guitar.
From the summer of 2011, he became highly active as a session bass player, both live and in the studio. While in Malaysia, he worked with Ning Baizura, Michael Veerapen, Jayesslee, Melissa Indot, Mokhtar Samba African Jazz Project, Patrick Terbrack, Valtinhio Anastacio, John Thomas, Lewis Pragasam to name a few artists. He eventually relocated to Doha, Qatar in November 2014. He worked extensively with many visiting artists to the now defunct Jazz at Lincoln Center Doha and did a 2 month residency at the club with renowned singer from acid jazz group Incognito, Deborah Bond. He's now based in Dubai, U.A.E since the summer of 2015 working in various formats, most recently having played bass for the world premier of Emirati composer, Ihab Darwish's album, Waves of my Life which featured the Beethoven Academy Orchestra and Polish Chamber Choir from Poland on March 2018.
Ever since his relocation to Dubai, he's focused a lot more on the educational side of music, contributing to the ever growing need for video lessons on the internet. He has performed and recorded with artists like Frederic Yonnet, The Brand New Heavies, Mahesh Balasooriya, Eddie Cole, The Supremes, Samvel Gasparyan and Layla Kardan in the U.A.E. His debut record, ROAD NOT TAKEN was released on the 7th of February 2019, which was well received by jazz audiences around the world. His second record, titled PERENNIAL was released on the 27th of February 2021. Anthony now resides in New York City, as of the summer of 2022. Anthony endorses Marceau Guitars and Trickfish Amplifications.

It’s been a minute since I shed this tune! Hopefully Humpty Dumpty didn’t have a great fall 💩🤐 These changes are rough, no matter how much you shed them 🫠
Took inspiration from fellow bass ninjas and absolutely crushing on these changes.

Hey everyone!
Here is a showreel from my first band leader show in NYC on March 15th 2024, at one of my favorite venues in the city, ShapeShifter Lab. I'm really looking forward to recording my 3rd album with some of the finest musicians in the city. Yes, gone are the days of multitracking my music! The new music is going to be very different from what I normally indulge in, so I am very excited to see & hear it all unfold! Hope you enjoy this little snippet and be sure to subscribe to my Youtube channel if you haven't already!
Check out this video if you are interested to know more about my bass! Shoutout to Marceau Guitars for building me this beautiful instrument. I couldn't be happier and I look forward to the next build!
