Anthony Raneri and TWLOHA

Anthony Raneri


Last year Anthony Raneri, Bayside’s frontman, released his first solo album, “New Cathedrals.” For only $5 on iTunes, fans could pick up the five song album to see what the singer/songwriter is like without the talents of Jack O’shea, Chris Guglielmo, and Nich Ghanbarian. Needless to say “New Cathedrals” is very different from what Bayside fans are used to. It is lighter and upbeat, proving that Raneri must be drawing from different influences.



 Case in point being the track entitled “Charleston.” It has a different feel from the other songs Raneri has written in the past. Although the record has a few Bayside elements, the differences can be fully appreciated for what they are. “Lead, Follow, Fall” sounds very much like  Bayside’s “Paternal Reversal,” which was featured on their acoustic album. “New Cathedrals” is worth a listen, especially for $5. Additionally, Anthony Raneri offers a free download of “Ballad of Bill the Saint” on his website.

In an email newsletter, Raneri announced that this year he will be focusing more on Bayside but he will squeeze some solo shows in somewhere. A few of those shows is on TWLOHA’s Heavy and Light Tour. TWLOHA or To Write Love on her Arms is a non-profit organization that works to bring awareness to suicide, substance abuse, and depression. The organization has been prominent in several other music festivals, selling merch and sharing their stories.
