Heard below: Anthony's new album's signature title track, 'The Photographer'.

For Anthony, The Photogapher was inspired by a real-life encounter with an old photographer. As Anthony recalls, "He said, 'Liking someone is like taking their photograph. You've gotta find their good side.' And the next day, his words came back to me and I started writing the song."

Anthony writes new songs in a classic style, with influences from traditional pop, country and jazz. With warm and heartfelt vocals, accompanied by himself on ukulele.

Anthony has been a performing singer-songwriter since 2013. The latest album, sees Anthony backed up again by the acclaimed The Deanna Djuric Trio (Deanna on piano, Tim Bowen on double bass and Mario Marino on drums and percussion). The Photographer was co-produced by ARIA-nominated engineer Gabs Agostino at Chapel Lane Studios in Anthony's hometown of Adelaide.
