Some artists are born into music, while others find it along the way—AN̈TḦONY is a rare blend of both. Raised in a household where creativity was the pulse of everyday life, art and music were never just hobbies; they were a way of being. With a former actress for a mother and a drummer for a father, the stage was set for a life steeped in artistic expression. Poetry was the first love, a medium through which emotions could be set free, but it wasn’t long before melodies and lyrics found their way into the picture. Singing became an extension of that expression, and the magic of performance soon followed.
Growing up, AN̈TḦONY absorbed a world of sounds—classical compositions, jazz improvisations, and the ever-evolving landscape of pop music. The radio played everything from heartfelt ballads to high-energy hits, shaping a musical palette that was as diverse as it was personal. Even as a child, there was a fascination with storytelling—both through music and through the cultures that surrounded it. Learning new languages, discovering different perspectives, and weaving them all into one artistic identity became second nature.
Boston played a crucial role in shaping AN̈TḦONY’s artistic foundation. Moving there for many years, the city became more than just a home—it became a place of self-discovery. Attending a local music school allowed for not only technical growth as a musician but also a deeper understanding of artistry, it was in Boston that AN̈TḦONY truly found his voice, both figuratively and literally. Learning piano unlocked new dimensions of songwriting, while live performances for the local community ignited the fire of a true performer. It was also there that the love for pop rock was revived—a sound that would later become a signature element in his music.
Then came a turning point. The pandemic forced a moment of reflection—what truly mattered? What dreams were worth chasing? The answer was clear, and with that, a leap of faith: Los Angeles. The early months were tough—navigating a new city, struggling to make ends meet, and wondering if the decision was the right one. But then, something clicked. Moving to Hollywood changed everything. Suddenly, there were stories everywhere—new faces, fleeting romances, friendships, creative collaborations, heartbreaks, and moments of inspiration on every corner. More than just a city, Hollywood became a muse. It was there that AN̈TḦONY embraced his love for rock ‘n’ roll, not just as a sound, but as a way of living unapologetically.
At the core of AN̈TḦONY’s music lies a constant inner dialogue—a battle between logic and emotion, between self-preservation and raw vulnerability. The struggle of feeling everything so deeply while trying to make sense of it all. The music is a way to bridge that gap, to embrace the contradictions that make us human. Some days, it’s about heartbreak and loss; other days, it’s about confidence and desire. But in every song, there is truth. There is permission to feel without shame. That’s the mission: to encourage others to let their emotions surface, to allow themselves to be seen, flaws and all, and to create a space where people can connect judgment-free.
Musically, AN̈TḦONY’s sound blurs the lines between pop, pop rock, and elements of EDM, drawing heavy inspiration from the late ‘90s and early 2000s—a time when music was raw, emotional, and full of storytelling. There’s a nostalgic familiarity in the melodies, yet a fresh, modern take that makes the sound undeniably unique.
With the latest release, HOLLYWEIRDO, AN̈TḦONY tells the story of this very moment in life—navigating the chaos and beauty of Hollywood, embracing the highs and lows of human connection, and making music that feels. The EP is an invitation to explore every side of oneself—the lover, the dreamer, the heartbroken, the reckless, the confident, the insecure. Because to be human is to be all of those things at once, and that’s not just okay—that’s something to be proud of.
With an electrifying presence, fearless honesty, and a sound that speaks to both nostalgia and the future, AN̈TḦONY is carving out a space in music that is undeniably his own. This is more than just an artist. This is a movement—a reminder that vulnerability is power, and that music is the language of the soul.
