About Me
Anthony Geraci
~Serendipity~
Pianist and composer Anthony Geraci has backed up a virtual who’s
who of American blues artists. B.B.King, Otis Rush, Big Mama Thorton,
Chuck Berry, Big Walter Horton (and the list could go on) have had
Anthony’s fiery piano accompany them on stages across North America
and Europe. Anthony has spent the better part of thirty five years with
Sugar Ray and the Bluetones and Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters. He
was nominated for a Grammy in 2000 for his work on Super Harps 1
(Telarc International Records) and has been featured on over fifty
recordings. His new recording Serendipity (HugaDog Records)
showcases Anthony’s affinity with the Jazz idiom while maintaining his
love and respect for the Blues. Seven out of the nine tracks were
composed by Anthony, and all were arranged by him. From the liner
notes by Michael “Mudcat” Ward: “This latest collection of tracks
illustrates the multiple ways Anthony has created and performed
beautiful melodies set forth entirely in harmonic and emotional balance.
Whether serious or lighthearted, this is high-spirited, meaningful music.”
Musicians on Serendipity include: Sugar Ray Norcia and Taryn Noelle-
vocals; Paul Ahlstrand-saxophones; Gabe Jarrett-drums (son of
legendary pianist Keith Jarrett,) Barry Reis-trumpet (Horace Silver, Joe
Lavano.) Anthony has toured extensively in Europe, Australia, New
Zealand, Canada, South America, Lebanon, and the United States.
