  • Episode 30: Anthony Krizan (Spin Doctors) Interview
    Apr 17 2025

    Anthony Krizan’s rock roots run deep. He was lead guitarist of the Spin Doctors, opening 15 dates for the Rolling Stones with audiences of 70,000, and for the Allman Brothers. He played guitar with Jimi Hendrix’s legendary bassist, Noel Redding and is an original member of Amphibian, with Phish lyricist Tom Marshall. Anthony has also penned rock/soul staples such as Stand By My Woman with Lenny Kravitz, 5 songs on the Spin Doctors Greatest Hits, the theme of the Spin City TV series and The Howard Stern “Miss America” theme. Recently, Krizan co-wrote the title track to former Baby’s singer and solo artist John Waite’s 2022 EP, Anything, and also co-wrote the title track to John Waite’s Mercury release When You Were Mine.

    But Anthony’s true passion lies in his solo work. Anthony’s solo band performances and songs are an electrifying, swampy, rock/blues/soul, genre crossing solo-coaster ride. His latest single “White Lines” has a slamming blues infused groove and Krizan explains the inspiration, ““White Lines” is a nod to one of my biggest guitar influences and heroes Jimi Hendrix. I set out to write a song that had the vibe and spirit of Voodoo Child. I played with Noel Redding, Hendrix ‘s bassist for about 10 years on and off. I hope Noel and Jimi are looking down and smiling and saying yeah man thank you.”
