Anita Faye

Singer Songwriter

Anita Faye is an American singer, songwriter, fashion accessories designer, and philanthropist. Practically born in the church, Anita began singing at a very early age and studied music--participating in band and choir--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 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've overcome...mostly. 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."   For more information: https://anitafaye.com/
