Anthony Murayama (born in Tokyo, Japan) is a Japanese-American Drummer from Japan. During high school, he moved from his homeland of Japan to Orange County, California. He broke ground as the first Japanese-American in the Newport Harbor High School band (drummer). This accomplishment, combined with his passion and dedication towards his home country, got him noticed by Joe Nance, bassist of Antibiotics. In the fall of 2023, Joe recruited Anthony as the new Japanese drummer of Antibiotics following Aron leaving the band. Anthony became the first Japanese-American member of a Medicine Cabinet band.
On July 27, 2024, Anthony (Japanese-American Drummer) released his first solo album under the name Antony. The album, titled The Magical Album: A Drummer's Delight, was originally released on CD only. The album stands as the accomplished first (and maybe last) ever Japanese album released by the Medicine Cabinet. We are excited to see what Japanese music he will release in the future in America.
