Many of you, (especially recording artist), might remember me from my hot as fire music store HIGH VOLUME MUSIC in Houston, TX from the late 90's until early 2000.
I broke a lot of records at my shop and I have the gold and platinum plaques to prove it!
Some of the artist I've broken through the years include Eric Benet, Destiny's Child,Jagged Edge, Black Sheep and many more!
During the time my shop was open I hosted listening parties and in store performance and signings for artist including Will Downing, Brian McKnight, Pru, Joe Carmouche, Ron Brown, Morgan Bouldin, Onyx, Solo, Destiny's Child, South Park Mexican, Willie D, H-town, Case, Dean James and many others!!
Nowadays High Volume Music is an on line retailer and a music label. My band Collective Hallucination is on it as well as Hot newcomer Dominique.
Below is my full bio.
Enjoy!! Welcome back friends!!
Focused and determined are just two words to describe Anthony Frazier, owner of High Volume Music, Sunnyside Posse Mgmt and Promotions and former president of Hard Edge Entertainment. Having been in the music and entertainment business for over twenty years, Anthony has been at the forefront of the music industry in the City Of Houston.
His humble beginnings started as Anthony honed his skills writing articles for such Houston based publications as Houston Forward Times Magazine, Houston Style Magazine and his very own newsletter High Volume 3594, which later became a music store. Anthony also worked at what was then known as Sound Warehouse records and tapes and the very popular Soundwaves Franchise, where he developed his entrepreneurial talents and knowledge. As owner of High Volume Music, Anthony has helped propel sells of many artists into the super star stratosphere, including Alicia Keys, Eric Benet and Destinys Child. Through the years, Anthony has been awarded many platinum and gold plaques and many awards including the prestigious retailer of the year award from Impact Magazine.After being in many bands through the years, Anthony formed his own band in 1999 called Collective Hallucination. He says they are poised to take over the recording industry with their incredible brand of Funk Rock and Soul. The band to this date has performed at venues in Texas, Louisiana and Florida. Collective Hallucination has opened for George Clinton, Lalah Hathaway, Los Lonely Boys and others.

In late 2000, Anthony closed his storefront and moved his business to the World Wide Web, which has seen an impressive amount of business in a short period of time. Anthony was also hired by Hard Edge Entertainment to help lead them into what will certainly become one of the hottest and most successful entertainment companies based out of Houston. Focusing his energies on 2006 and beyond as kept Anthony very busy as of late, and he says he would not have it any other way.
He's the president and crew of his one man record label High Volume Music Recordings, he teaches basic guitar and he's writing and producing a new artist and working on many different ventures with his band Collective Hallucination. Ant Boogie is a true renaissance man.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
