"Mazzella makes a convincing argument for inclusion among rock's new generation of guitar heroes with this striking instrumental interpretation of the U2 hit. He does an astonishing job in creating the energy and pace of a full band with only one guitar. His fingers move like lightening and with a precision that will boggle the mind. This well-known cut is an excellent introduction to "The Birth," a collection of vivid and intricately constructed original compositions." Larry Flick, Billboard Magazine

Anthony Mazzella is a professional recording artist, concert guitarist and producer. BILLBOARD Magazine describes him as "the new generation of guitar hero" and GUITAR ONE magazine voted him "one of the top ten guitarists in the country".

One of the few chosen understudies of world-renowned guitar master Stanley Jordan, Mazzella has opened for headlining artists, James Brown, Tower of Power, The Commodores, and Spyro Gyra. His original music is composed with a fusion of world influences consisting of acoustic and electric fingerstyle, classical, flamenco, jazz, funk, R&B, celtic, ambient, rock, medieval & middle-eastern. He also plays a one-of-a-kind Ten String Guitar that he designed and was built by his father. On this unique instrument, Anthony displays his abilities in fingering bass lines and chords with his left hand while simultaneously playing melodies on the fret board with his right.

"Mazzella displayed classical and guitar pyrotechnic influence. At times he was truly one with his guitar. The energy emanating from him and his instrument was felt throughout the room and replenished for him by roars of applause after every song. Combined masterful skill and talent to create a one-man show that was very well received." Alyssa Lora, The New York Times
