Transformative and compelling, Anita Faye takes listeners on a heartfelt ride with her equally sweet and soaring voice.  Her latest single is a worship track entitled “To God be the Glory” which is set for a March 24, 2023 release.

Anita Faye is an American singer, songwriter, stage performer, voice over artist, fashion accessories designer, and philanthropist. Practically born in the church, Anita began singing at a very early age and studied music throughout school.  She competed in and won several talent shows. And as she progressed in her singing and songwriting, she collaborated with other music creators.  Anita Faye has worked with GRAMMY award winning producers, including Gen Rubin and the late Betty Wright who penned "All of the Above" on Anita’s "Kingdom Journey" project. 

A lyric soprano with a distinctively clear and smooth voice, Anita Faye is stylistically fluid in jazz, gospel, pop and R&B genres.  But, says Ms. Faye, "Gospel and jazz will always be my first loves."  Anita is also a skilled wordsmith, writing songs from a place of raw emotion and her unique perspective on the world.  "I am unashamed in sharing that I've been through some  things;  including  miscarriage, barrenness, depression, divorce, crises of faith,  and then some. Thankfully, I am an overcomer. My music is real, like me."  Anita goes on to say, "I don't apologize for what I've been through or how I share my story. And if my experiences are relatable or help others on their healing journey, then I consider that a job well done."     

Anita Faye's prior projects include two Christmas songs. "I Got Everything I Want for Christmas (I Got You)" is an upbeat and humorous song about having great relationships that serve as the true gift of the season. Ms. Faye wrote the song primarily as a tribute to her husband. And "This Holiday" (co-written with Ariel Pedroso) is an alluring, smooth jazz piece that sets a chill atmosphere for ambient holiday vibes. 

To date, Anita has produced five commercial projects, including two full-length albums ("Kingdom Journey" and "R U Willing"), one EP ("Late Bloomer") and two singles (the aforementioned Christmas songs, "This Holiday" and "I Got Everything I Want for Christmas"). 

Anita Faye burst onto the national consciousness in 2007 with the release of her critically acclaimed, independently released CD, "R U Willing," which earned a Gospel Album of the Year nomination from the International Independent Music Awards. Since then, she has continued to hone her considerable skills as a songwriter and vocal stylist by sharing the stage with some of Gospel music’s legends, including Martha Munizzi, Kim Burrell, and the Edwin Hawkins Youth & Young Adult Mass Choir, among others. Along the way, she wrote, produced, and performed the title track to the independent feature film, Mama’s Eyes, and made history by becoming the first singer to perform "Lift Every Voice and Sing" (the Negro National Anthem) at a Major League Baseball game (at Fenway Park). 

A self-professed late bloomer, Anita Faye says that like many people, she had her whole life planned out. “If you want to make God laugh, just tell Him your plans!” she quips. “The years roll by, and you begin to wonder what happened. Now, when I see things coming to pass that I had envisioned happening years before, I just have to laugh. Our society tends to applaud people who achieve remarkable things at a very early age, but we often don’t give as much respect to those who achieve success later in life. Sometimes I think you appreciate things more once you have some life experience under your belt. It makes you more thankful for what you receive, and better prepared to give back when the time comes.”
