Born into a family entrenched in Canadian entertainment history, Dante has been working in the music business for three decades in one way or another. His multi-instrumentalist Father (Dante Sr) was the first Music Director of the East Coast Music Awards. His Godfather (Bobby Curtola) is a Canadian Music Hall of Fame inductee, an Order of Canada recipient, and the first Canadian to sing a Coca-Cola Jingle. His Grandfather (Ralph Craig) was a radio station promo manager and concert producer for Donald K Donald. A music industry lifer, Dante’s first music job was bringing food/beer to bands like April Wine, Dire Straits, and Def Leppard at massive outdoor festivals at 6 years old. He then cut his teeth as a multi-instrumentalist/songwriter touring across Europe/UK/Canada/USA with songs on the radio, and in Films/TV. Since officially joining the music industry ranks he has held positions in A&R (Label & Publishing), Sync Management, and Creative Management with CCS Rights/Daytripper Songs, K-tel Records, Good People Artist Management and is currently the Director, Licensing & Creative at Anthem Entertainment.
