Fresh from New York City comes the remarkable sounds of Anthony Dixon. A singer/songwriter who has worked with Supreme-diva Diana Ross and original "Dreamgirl" Jennifer Holliday, Dixon drops a gem of a project with his stunning new CD All Outta Words. With a voice reminiscent of El DeBarge and smooth production skills, Dixon takes the listener on a fantastic voyage with 18 cuts of pure and uncut soul.
"Yo Ant... showtime! You ready?" A voice asks as Dixon breaks into a scat on the intro track, "Finding the Words." The CD then kicks into high gear as he showcases a mean falsetto on "Riddle (Who Am I?)" "Where Have You Been?" is a smooth groove that rides a Spanish guitar vibe while "Have a Good Time" has the potential to be the Friday song played in the club after a long week on the job. Other highlights from this album include "When We Lay Close," "Every Man," and the stunning closer "Jesus Walked This Lonesome Valley."
