Most impressive about Anthony is that he puts on approximately 200 shows a year, and has became a regular at the Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge locations in Nashville, Tennessee, and Panama City Beach, Florida. “We keep real busy and we are constantly playing and touring. I love performing! That’s the reason as to why I got into this business,” he says.

“Girls Will Be Girls” on weekly reviews Roughstock.com

It’s a winning sound and perhaps nothing on his album Between Home & The Bright Lights is as representative of this sound than “Girls Will Be Girls,” the fifth track on the album. It’s hook-filled, well performed and produced and just plain fun, the kind of song that not only sounds good on country radio but also at an entertaining live show. Downright fun.

Review of Anthony’s Album Between Home And The Bright Lights on Digital Rodeo

Whether he is belting out the rockin’ “Freight Train” or the soft, gentle “Those Nights, These Days”, his vocals are pure and clear. I had the opportunity to see Anthony’s performance live and he is not only a great singer but a very strong entertainer. He travels and performs over 200 shows a year from Florida to Canada and everywhere in between. “For me, there is no place I would rather be than on stage, sharing music with an audience. The energy that comes from a live show is the ultimate high,” says Orio.

“I love the interaction,” Orio says of live performance. “I just love the way you can be on stage and totally connect with an audience. And every audience is different. You’re connecting and reconnecting with different people every time you take the stage.”

His brand of high-voltage rock-infused country has the crowd quickly on their feet, singing along with his original songs, words they know by heart. For Orio, it’s an ordinary night.
