ANTHONY PADILLA

Over a lifetime of music, Anthony Padilla has crafted an idiosyncratic approach to songwriting that incorporates influences from The Beatles to Tom Waits with stops in between to touch on jazz, soul and R&B. The heart of the music is an expressive voice that whispers, croons and belts forth grit and emotion paired with an eclectic sense of rhythm and instrumental sounds to make an original style from the heart. In Anthony Padilla Trio, he is joined by Patrick Moynihan (upright bass/bass guitar/voice) and George May (drum kit/voice) to fill out and twist these songs in strange and wonderful ways.
