Papamichael World Group
Mass Appeal

The Story
Skillfully blending elements of smooth jazz and fusion on his new CD with the Papamichael World Group, entitled "Mass Appeal", is guitarist Anthony Papamichael, who alternates a variety of clean and overdriven electric tones with warm, resonant acoustic lead guitar. As one might expect on Papamichael release, he is joined by a roster of exceptional musicians, including drummers Melvin Baldwin, Chuck Bithorn and Sean O'Rourke, saxophonist Sam Skelton, and bassists Joe Reda and Sam Sims, among others. Bouncing with melodic guitar and horn lines, but with enough harmonic surprises to maintain interest over repeated listenings, "Mass Appeal" is bolstered by Papamichael's strength and fervor - a passion for excellence - and documents his growth as a musician, from his debut "Just Like It Sounds" through "Defending The Orphan" and "Un Expect It".
