Based in New York City (Brooklyn to be exact) but originally from northern California, J. Anthony Granelli is a flexible bassist/composer who combines jazz with rock and funk and can -- depending on the mood he is in -- be groove-oriented one minute and cerebral or abstract the next. Granelli (who plays both electric and acoustic bass) brings a wide variety of influences to the table, and they range from electric Miles Davis to '60s and '70s organ combos to the downtown Manhattan/Knitting Factory crowd of the '90s and 2000s.
