Anthony Brown & Group TherAPy – A Long Way from Sunday

Anthony Brown and group therAPy stormed onto the gospel music scene with their 2015 Grammy-nominated, Billboard award-winning, GMA Dove award-winning worship single 'Worth' from their first album, 'Everyday Jesus'. 'A Long Way From Sunday', the group’s sophomore release, is a great gospel album from beginning to end. Anthony Brown is the choir director, speaking and/or singing on most songs. Uplifting album. An enjoyable listen. Fave tracks: 1*, 2**, 3*, 4**, 5*, 10**, 11*, 14*. Album reviewed by Christina from Lift Jesus Higher! No FCCs.
