Anthony Krizan is one of the busiest artists in the Garden State, which explains why it's been nearly six years since his last album. The owner of Sonic Boom Studios, Krizan is a producer/engineer as well as a top guitarist and singer-songwriter. On August 19, 2022, he released a video for "Strawberry Wine" - the first single from his upcoming album.
"Strawberry Wine" named the Makin Waves Song of the Week on August 19th by music journalist Bob Makin who called it "a fusion of the ‘70s strut of The Rolling Stones with Prince’s funky pop feel."
Krizan’s rock roots run deep. He was lead guitarist of the Spin Doctors, opening 15 dates for the Rolling Stones with audiences of 70,000, and for the Allman Brothers. He played guitar with Jimi Hendrix’s legendary bassist, Noel Redding. Anthony is known for rocking the big stages and getting an audience on their feet. He’s an original member of Amphibian, with Phish lyricist Tom Marshall.
Anthony has also penned rock/soul staples such as Stand By My Woman with Lenny Kravitz, 5 songs on the Spin Doctors Greatest Hits, the theme of the Spin City TV series and The Howard Stern “Miss America” theme. Recently, Krizan co-wrote the title track to British rock singer John Waite’s new 2022 EP, Anything, and produced 3 tracks on the release. He also co-wrote the title track to John Waite’s Mercury release When You Were Mine.Krizan is the 2013 recipient of the ASCAP Foundation Jay Gorney Award for the song he co-wrote with Cheryl Daveiga, “Home Don’t Feel Like Home”.
But Anthony’s true passion lies in his solo work. The Anthony Krizan Band's performances and songs are electrifying, a swampy, rock/blues/soul, genre crossing solo-coaster ride. The title track to his last CD, Dust & Bone, was well-received and recorded by Gretchen Wilson, blues guitar legend Pat Travers and Tim Hicks (Universal Records).
