About Anton O'Donnell
Frontman of Glasgow based outfit, Anton & The Colts and solo artist, Anton has brought his music to Texas, Rome, Nashville, Paris, New Orleans to London and back home again. Living proof that success does not necessarily mean compromise, Anton has taken the music he loves – blues, country, folk, rock n roll – and shaped them into a potent, fresh, yet reassuringly familiar brew.
Blessed with a smoky, whisky-soaked voice redolent of the great soul singers of Stax & Muscle Shoals, and armed with just an acoustic guitar & harmonica, Anton adds incisive lyrics to sweet melodies to create something that can reduce a rowdy bar to awed silence or rouse the most sedate venue to fever pitch.
Along with band duties in the UK, Anton was busy with solo tours across Europe and the US; using the experience to hone his song writing, and live performances.
When Anton wasn’t bouncing about gigging or writing, he could usually be found dishing out pool lessons at his local watering hole!
A week into lockdown, Anton was approached by 'Need to Know Music' based in California, headed by producers Brian Brinkerhoff and Frank Swart…
This has led to Anton signing to the boutique label and the subsequent release of ‘Boy Living for the Weekend’ with Anton & the Colts, and debut solo releases of 'Say Their Names', and 'On the Way Down' during the summer of 2020, and the Christmas release of his debut EP, ‘Christmas Ain’t the Same’.
The summer of 2021 saw Anton release, ‘Where Art Thou April?’…. a self-produced 4 track EP that features some of Glasgow’s finest musicians from various bands including, Awkward Family Portraits, Blue Milk, Al & the Bad Decisions and Emerald State. There are also guest appearances from Phil Bennett of Starship (formally Jefferson Starship), and session musician/producer extraordinaire, Frank Swart.
During the past year, Anton has been working closely with ‘Need to Know Music’ on his full-length debut, and is set to be released in the autumn of 2023. The record will feature long term collaborator Roscoe Wilson (Solo Artist, Anton & the Colts) and a host of seasoned session musicians from Nashville, Texas and California.

Who knows, but hopefully a whole lot more of the above.
