Canadian-born guitarist, singer, and songwriter Anthony Gomes lives by that credo of truth as an artist, constantly challenging himself to expand his explorations of heart and sound. His latest release, Rebel Blue, is a career ’best of’ retrospective that celebrates the acclaimed artist’s vibrant masterwork of blues-based rock, soul and R&B.
Born in Toronto, Canada, to a Portuguese father and a French-Canadian mother, Gomes began playing guitar in his early teens. "On my 14th birthday, my Dad surprised me with the coolest present - a beat up old acoustic guitar. Since then, the guitar has never left my side.” Inspired to write original music, Anthony’s high school band won a local radio station contest, earning $10,000 in prize money and a chance to open for Bon Jovi. Gomes decided it wasn't his path to follow. "I quit the band before all of that could happen. My heart wasn't in it because I wanted to play the blues and roots music. I packed up my bags moved to Chicago to learn blues from the masters.”
Gomes relocated to the Windy City in the late '90s with hopes of establishing himself as a musician. After a brief stint as a sideman for Magic Slim and the Teardrops, Gomes put together his own group and won the first annual Buddy Guy’s Legends “Best Unsigned Blues Band” competition in 1998. After honing his craft on the Windy City club circuit, he moved to Nashville, TN, where he found a home for himself amid the city's renowned music scene. Gomes explains, "I moved to Chicago to be a better musician and then headed down to Nashville to learn more about songwriting."
