Anthony Gomes is our guest on today's show. Anthony joined us to discuss his latest release on Rat Pak Records, High Voltage Blues. Anthony describes his sound as if BB King was in AC/DC. Anthony  electrifies blues and rock at a 21st century crossroads of his own. The Canadian vocalist, guitarist, songwriter and producer wails with all the force of a hurricane in the Mississippi Delta and enough fret-burning fireworks to leave his strings in flames. Over the years, he’s toppled the Billboard Blues Chart at #1, earned the endorsement of legends such as B.B. King, tallied tens of millions of streams, and packed shows on multiple continents. 

Anthony started a foundation in 2010 call Music is the Medicine. Music is the Medicine Foundation, a national 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, was founded to positively impact the lives of others through the healing power of music. Since its inception, MITM has directly helped children with cancer, young adults with Autism, and war veterans with PTSD.
