about

"If there is such a thing as a cool-cat guitarist these days, then Tony is it. He knows his craft and is a master of tones and styles. He captivates on this new, instrumental album with everything from surf rock and movie-soundtrack hipster jazz, to Stevie Ray Vaughan blues muscle, some ambient Pink Floyd nods and some New Orleans party hints with his own special weave, all backed by all-star Boston musicians who jam fluidly throughout. A soothing and highly intelligent blend of music."

-- Steve Morse, former staff critic at the Boston Globe for 28 years who now teaches Rock History for Berklee College of Music
