PRESS RELEASE - Sept. 21, 2005


Anthony Ingram smooth Jazz guitarist extraordinaire makes an ultimate difference in VA's Jazz scene with his CD "Strings in the Night" released on Britt Dine Records.


In the 80's, 15 year old Anthony Ingram got the attention of major record label Philadelphia International who quickly signed the young prodigy as lead guitarist for the hot band Anglo Saxon Brown. A native of Richmond, VA, Ingram quickly gained traveling opportunities as he opened for notable artists like 70's Icon Kool & The Gang, The Isley Brothers, The Temptations, Lou Rawls, The Ohio Players, Mother's Finest, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Atlantic Starr and Ashford & Simpson. Although Jazz is his love, Ingram was sought after by artists of various genres such as the multi-award winning, Gospel great Pastor Shirley Caesar. While touring with Pastor Caesar, he shared the stage with many other great notable Gospel artists.

Returning to his love of Jazz, Anthony Ingram drops on us his debut solo project "Strings in the Night" which is sure to take you high above the clouds on a smooth ride into a night of Jazz seduction. The smooth, melodic tones on "Soft and Mellow" sets the mood just right. "Red Rose" and "Brazillian Nights" will keep your musical taste thirsty for more of Ingram's musical interpretations. While he has produced and written many great works for East Coast notables like The Waller Family & Carlton Blount, Anthony Ingram; the elegant guitarist/producer/writer has some surprises up his sleeve in this well-groomed, self co-produced project.
