James Anthony has a unique style and grace
along with a feel for a range of electric and
acoustic music stemming from Blues to R&B,
Jazz, Swing and Country. However the one
feature that James is most renowned for is
his captivating slide guitar work. James is
looked upon as being a "Guitarist's guitarist",
especially after winning the Coca-Cola Fender
Guitar Warz 1989 in Toronto. He also won the
Cable TV Producers Award for best music show
after 4 years at Rogers Cable. Equally at home
on an acoustic, Dobro or fingerstyle, James has
hosted guitar workshops at festivals including
Festival of Friends in Hamilton, Mill Race Folk
Festival in Cambridge and The Harbourfront
Blues Fest in Toronto.
He started out as a natural musician at 10, played
Ontario Place at 15 and turned pro at 17. James'
experience in the music industry is reminiscent
of legendary players of the past. ...
