From: IL, United States
610 is the artist name for singer/songwriter Anthony, who creates/records/produces original Alt-Rock songs and performs live with various musician friends. The debut CD, Changing Vibrations, was an acoustic exploration of 610's writing ability and the first recording in a professional studio. With the help of Dom Palmisano at Linder Avenue Recording in Roselle, IL, this 8 song compilation was released and promoted with live performances at several Coffee Shops in the Chicago suburbs as well as a special charity concert for Ronald McDonald House Charities in 2009.
In 2010, Anthony returned to the studio with Dom to record the 4-song EP called Blend, which is a mix of 2 songs written years ago with 2 new songs. Dom expanded his role to Studio Drummer and Co-Producer, as well as Recording Engineer. Blend was released in early February 2011 at a CD Release Party at the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, IL. Anthony will be promoting all of his original music on the Internet and with live shows.
