Anthony Michelli

Born: November 22

Born in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, and currently based in Toronto, Anthony has been involved in music since a very young age.  Starting off on the accordion, on to the alto and tenor saxophones but being driven by the ever-present urge to want to play drums from the very beginning, Anthony built his own drum set and played from ear for years throughout his youth. He attributes a strong influence to having heard classical, cultural and popular music performed by his older sister on the piano and brother on the guitar as a part of his early musical development.

For over three decades Anthony has been active in international performance, recording, production and teaching career paths. He has collaborated with a vast number of distinguished composers and performers from all styles of music primarily focused on original music.  For a number of years he led the Anthony Michelli Bass-less Trio (SSR002), which features some of his original compositions.  Anthony was also an active contributing member of The Secret Quartet (Basho and Edition records UK) and the Piero Tucci, Quartet CANUK (U.K./CAN).

Anthony’s discography includes recordings in collaboration with several distinguished artists where he can be heard on over one-hundred internationally released recordings in the contemporary jazz, original composition, popular, creative and world music genres spanning from the year 1995 to the present.

His performance accolades include the 2010 Toronto Independent Music Award (TIMA) in the Best Jazz Category and for the Best Live Category. Michelli has been nominated for numerous JUNO Awards over the years as a member of several jazz, world and popular music categories.  In 2003 he received the Grand Prix de Jazz General Motors-Festival International de Jazz de Montreal Award (Nancy Walker Quartet) and the 1995 Jazz Report Award for National Post Secondary School Musician of the Year.

Born: October 10, 1993

Nicolas Dupuis is never far from home. As Anomalie – the shape-shifting, electronic-leaning contemporary jazz production project he unveiled in 2016 – the Montréal born & based artist has carved out his own niche in the music industry.  He combines his world-class talents as a composer, producer, and classically and jazz-trained keyboardist with an innovative electronic approach, drawing a great deal of inspiration from his upbringing in the Canadian metropolis.  

Anomalie has channeled his musical upbringing (his mother, a piano teacher; his father, a host on Radio-Canada), formal schooling, and stage-seasoned chops into an impressive body of recorded music. His catalog features two companion EPs - ‘Métropole’ and ‘Métropole II’, a collaboration with prominent funk group Chromeo on ‘Bend the Rules’, and his long-form debut, ‘Galerie’.  Most recently, in December 2023, Anomalie released an EP of Holiday covers, infusing the classic jazzy, piano-driven sound typical of Christmas music with electronica & hip-hop leaning beats.
