Critically acclaimed blues-rock, guitar maestro Anthony Gomes is back with the next single from his upcoming album, Praise the Loud. The single is the upbeat rocker "True That" which showcases the rock influence on Anthony's style. The lyrics of the song are a cautionary tale about what happens to a relationship when one person is busted as an unfaithful lover. The music video demonstrates this storyline, and the victim even comes out on top in the end. The video for "True That" was directed by Jamie Brown for Smoking Gun Inc and can be seen on KNAC.COM HERE.

"I wrote "True That" with my good friend Jim Peterik. As most of you know, Jim's written mega songs like "Eye Of The Tiger", "Vehicle", "Heavy Metal" and "Hold On Loosely". The song is about an unfaithful lover. Many of us have been there and it's hard, right? We wanted to approach the subject from a place of strength and empowerment. The idea of moving on with dignity. Laughter is the best medicine, and we threw in a few funny lines - 'She said you know my love's a crime, I've had twenty husbands but only two of them were mine.' We wrote the song in 90 minutes. It seems like the good ones come quickly. We demoed it the next day and now it's ready for the world to hear," explains Anthony Gomes.

Anthony Gomes is set to release his new album, Praise the Loud, on April 25, 2025, through Rat Pak Records. The album - Gomes' 14th studio album - is a powerful mix of electrifying blues and hard-hitting rock. The 12-track collection of all new material showcases the evolution of Anthony Gomes as a guitar player as well as a songwriter. The announcement of Praise The Loud was led by the release of the first single and title track, "Praise the Loud". The single is accompanied by an official music video, which has been viewed over 900,000 times.

Praise The Loud is now available for pre-order in various bundle configurations via the Rat Pak Records website.

The tracklisting for Praise The Loud is:

  • "Praise the Loud"
  • "True That"

Coming off an incredible year of live performances, Gomes has been making waves across the global blues scene. He recently returned from a sold-out January tour in Europe, which included stops in Belfast, Northern Ireland; Newcastle and Edinburgh, Scotland; and Fredericia, Denmark. Additionally, he headlined the January Blues Festival in London alongside Ana Popovic, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, and more. While in London, Anthony Gomes was invited to perform at a private event in the U.S. Embassy for dignitaries, employees, and the Canadian Ambassador.
