Anthony Rankin
Nashville, TN
Pop / Rock / Funk
Bio
I've often straddled the fences between rock and R&B, pop and funk... I still can't sit still in one place for too long, but most music critics would probably label my sound as generally being "pop/rock with a funk undercurrent." Like Maroon 5, but if Richie Sambora was the guitar player.

Press
"As strong as Rankin is as a performer, he [has] found other ways to make his mark, too. Right out of college, he honed his skills as a session player, writer and producer. Because Rankin was a talented, highly motivated student, teaching him was enjoyable, but [jazz guitarist and professor Mark] Koch also described Rankin as humble, a quality that can be just as important for success."
