Powerful New Contemporary Christian Release From Anthea Sweeney, 'Promises'
Anthea Sweeney, a passionate new voice in contemporary Christian music, has just released a brand-new album titled "Promises" that will deeply resonate with audiences.
With words and music inspired by God's faithfulness throughout her life and prompted by the urgency of this time in the world, this intimate acoustic album reveals heartfelt praise and worship songs, alongside message songs urging compassion and empathy.
With relevant lyrics, sweet harmonies and a poignancy that will resonate with many, Anthea's music speaks from the heart. You'll hear a style clearly influenced by classics such as Twila Paris and Sandi Patty, but with a modern approach that calls one in like Chris Tomlin. Purposely minimalist in production, you'll feel like you're sitting in her living room.
"I have loved making music since childhood. As a teenager, I began writing songs inspired through my personal relationship with God and its many manifestations in my daily walk. Raised in Trinidad and Tobago, the soundtrack of my childhood featured sweet Caribbean melodies, sweeter harmonies, bold African rhythms, and compelling lyrics. While my formal training included classical piano and choral singing, my interests also extended to pop, rock, R&B and gospel. My first album, Promises (released April 21, 2025) can properly be characterized as inspirational music, contemporary christian, or gospel depending on one's aesthetic ear. I hope you enjoy and take to heart its core message of encouragement: No matter who you are, God loves you!"
