World

Montreal native, lived in Asheville since 2008. Production Manager for Asheville Music Hall (2016-2023) and Good Flow Productions since 2010, where I've produced and collaborated with dozens of Asheville and regional artists. Expanded to Erwin TN in 2021 with Good Flow Recording, a live/work creative space and full service recording studio designed to "feel like home."

Personal projects include Waxing Gibbous (funk, Neo-soul), Space Medicine (ambient improv), Silver Machine (space rock, psychedelic), Hope Griffin (folk, Americana), Abby Bryant & the Echoes (soul, rock), with whom I’ve recorded numerous albums and played hundreds of shows around Asheville and throughout the southeast. Other Asheville collaborations as a bassist include a Tom Waits tribute with Stevie Lee Combs, jazz combos with Dan Keller, Albi Podrizki, Michael John Marx Jr, founding member of the Sun-Ra inspired Seraphim Arkistra (ambient, improvisational), a years long live-looping residency with space jazz trio The Mystic Ferrymen, and seasonal engagements playing tuba with Asheville 2nd Line, and the Lagerhosen Polka Party Band.

I have an academic background in jazz studies and musical theater, am open to session work and live engagements on bass and tuba, and available to produce, engineer, or otherwise collaborate on your next project.

"Footsteps" ambient improv from Anthony Dorion's Bass Medicine

Space Medicine was an ambient improv collective anchored by hammer dulcimer visionary Mary Sparks and best known for their Friday night Kava Bar residency, which featured 4 hours of improvisational collaboration with a varied roster of guests and regulars, as well as original compositions by Sparks, Dorion, and anybody else who might be joining them. This 2014 recording features the band's core trio and was included on my 2015 ambient-looping album "Bass Medicine."

"Carousel" - Hope Griffin Duo

Hope and I have done 3 albums and numerous singles together. While included on her 2023 album, this recording was made back in 2018. After 2 albums with beautiful strings and meticulous horn arrangements Hope wanted to do something more stripped down, intimate, and this is what we came up with. Just the two of us - her guitar and vocals supported by chord pads and counter melodies played on the bass.

Audio/video tracked, mixed, and mastered by Anthony Dorion. Music and lyrics by Hope Griffin.

"Bad As Me" by Tom Waits, reimagined by Anthony Dorion

Holed up in the studio on Christmas Eve 2018 to record this with Jameson Cooper, knocked it out in 6 hours start to finish and released it Christmas morning to great fanfare from my aunts and uncles.
