Tony Amicangelo Bass

The bass man, being one half of the foundation (rhythm section) of an entire band, is something you have to be able to accept.  In the blues, maybe more than most types of music, the bass and the drums hold everything together. There might be slight mishaps during the night that a soloist may make and it goes unnoticed but if the bass wavers even slightly, the entire band goes down.  That is the responsibility that all blues bassists have to shoulder for every performance. Tony not only answers that responsibility but is able to embellish on the raw bass patterns while still able to drive the band.  Night after night, Tony keeps the grooves rolling and smooth.  The success of a blues band can usually be measured by the soul feelings of the bass man. This is where Millie Street attains it's appeal and solid feel. Being the son of Ray Amicangelo, music ability is in the blood and in the heart.  With a couple of lessons from one of the best bass players ever, (his Uncle Paul Amicangelo) and study of Rick Clark from Boilerhouse Blues Band , Tony walks Millie Street through the songs and grooves like the seasoned leader he is.... From the heart... One note at a time
