Forward in Faith: Anthony Brown

Anthony Brown walks in his faith.

The Mission - “I want God to use us to answer people’s prayers through music,” he said.  “I also want it to be therapeutic … that’s where the new name came from.  I wanted to bring together really talented, really anointed singers and give them a safe place to heal. Our music is therapeutic for the listener and it is just as therapeutic for us to be together to share our gifts and our lives with one another. There is no judgment … no one is looking down on us.   (Photo: Tyscot Records)

Their Big Break - Brown joined forces with Grammy nominee and award-winning artist VaShawn Mitchell and Tyscot Records to release Anthony Brown & Group TherAPy. Via Mitchell’s production deal with Tyscot, the partnership was born. “VaShawn is a brother, friend and mentor to me,” said Brown. “I initially planned on releasing this album independently and sent him ‘Testimony’ to get his feedback. He called me that same day and said he couldn’t allow the world to NOT hear that song. He got Bryant Scott on the phone that day and the rest is history. VaShawn is a true champion of people … he’s a rarity in music today.”  (Photo: Rick Diamond/Getty Images for The Stellar Awards)
