Anthony Sica grew up on Staten Island, NY. Weened on The Beatles, The Who, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, KISS, Bon Jovi, Motley Crue and RUSH, He started playing drums and singing at 13. By the age of 16, he was hitting the skins and crooning in front of hundreds of people a month. After attending College, he was hitting the skins in an 80s cover band in front of hundreds of people a week. When he stepped out from the kit to front the seminal Central FL Rock band, Sweatbox, he was singing to thousands a night, live and on the radio. Warming up crowds for the likes of Matchbox 20, The Roxx Gang, Bullet Boys, Doubledrive, Sevendust, Molly Hatchet and Badfinger was a professional thrill. But when Sweatbox came to a halt, it was time for Anthony to pick up the guitar and literally play for his life. Thriving as an all-original solo artist ever since, Anthony moved back to NYC to play legendary clubs such as CBGBs and the Bitter End and continue his work as an Entertainment journalist...and he did both with great success. And even as he returns to Florida to an eternal position as the vocalist and bass player for the great metal/hard rock band Luna Dementia, Anthony's solo material still thrives like no other musical endeavor. With countless originals now being used in film and other commercial projects, this is blues, hard rock drummer/guitarist/singer-songwriter Anthony Sica...reborn an outlaw poet...an "Elevator Gypsy" as he's been dubbed...bent on serving the songs he writes, while exorcising the aural demons that possess him. Metaphorical yet confessional Dylanesque songs about angels, devils, rogue priests and priestesses, aliens, tarot readers, gypsies, carnivals, cowboy angels, gunfighters, witches, sorcerers, harlots, mavericks and outlaw poets like himself. Bittersweet Beatlesque melodies, lush vocals, heartbreaking hooks, righteous rock riffs and soulful hymns right out of the "Cosmic American Music" hymnal are all part of Anthony's nightly sermon, preached from the corner of "Positively 4th Street." And the congregation replies, "Amen."
