Anthony alone, and Sugarcane Jane, might be quite familiar to music fans both local, and far and wide. Together, they are 2/5 of the band Willie Sugarcapps (along with Will Kimbrough, Grayson Capps, and Corky Hughes.) Before meeting and marrying Savana, Alabama-born Anthony (deep breath): went from Opryland to the Grand Ole Opry with Roy Acuff, to being on tour with Sonny James, Neil Young, then Steve Winwood, Vince Gill, and Dwight Yoakam. He's had appearances on Hee Haw, Austin City Limits, Live Aid, Farm Aid, Showtime, The Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the Today Show, Grammy Awards Show and too much more to mention.
Anthony has been called the Forrest Gump of the music business, and those who say that mean it in the most complimentary and respectful way. Not the goofy Forrest Gump who stared into space and spouted one-liners that would look good embroidered on a pillow, but the Gump who seemed to be everywhere. His ability to play anything with strings has given him the kind of career that most artists only dream about.
But the last decade has been an intricate part of Anthony's ultimate direction. After marrying musical partner Savana Lee and settling down in the rural southern Alabama town of Loxley, and having three children, Anthony is well planted in fertile soil. His focus now lies in his family which led him to create Admiral Bean Studio and Baldwin County Public Records. It is what now drives him as well as enables him to spend more time at home while continuing to explore all creative avenues. When he and Savana arent performing together as Sugarcane Jane, theyre performing with Willie Sugarcapps, and when that isnt happening Anthony is in the studio recording CDs with the group, or Savana, or solo. Because making music is what he does; making music with Savana is what he does best.
