Pianist and composer Anthony Geraci releases Serendipity.
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.
