Anthony Garone “OK, But Why?” – new prog fusion album

OK, but why? is Anthony Garone’s first full-length album since 2007, and pulls together his best work from nearly two decades of writing, recording, and obsessing over arrangements that are equal parts song and puzzle. While much of the music existed publicly in earlier forms, this release is the cleaned-up, finished version: updated performances, improved production, and a cohesive arc that finally connects the dots across years of ideas. The album moves between odd-meter grooves, tight counterpoint, and melodic hooks that sneak in through the side door. Besides 11 original compositions, two movements from Bach’s Concerto for Violin and Oboe (BWV1060) re-imagined through Garone’s rhythmic lens, along with a refreshed take on Robert Fripp’s “Erudite Eyes”. Featuring 20 guest musicians among them Morgan Agren, Michael Manring, Andy West, Jan Zehrfeld.

Anthony Garone, born in 1982, is an entrepreneur, author, musician, and technologist from Mesa, Arizona.

“Anthony Garone has made an unapologetic, dense, alien melodic, rhythmic brain twisting, sublimely lovely solo record… I’m sure glad I don’t have to play it.” – STEVE VAI

“It’s an album of engaging, adventurous, unselfconsciously intelligent music, it spans a broad spectrum of musical and expressive worlds..” – GRETCHEN MENN
