NASHVILLE, TN — July 24, 2026) — After years of shaping the sound of modern worship behind the scenes, GRAMMY-nominated songwriter, producer and arranger ANTHNY (Anthony Brown) is stepping into the spotlight. The multi-talented artist officially announced his highly anticipated 13-track debut studio album, Worship Leader’s Diary, set for global release on September 25, 2026, via Sony Music/Provident Entertainment. Pre-orders for the project are available now.
Written and produced entirely by ANTHNY, the project seamlessly fuses contemporary worship with the smooth, soulful textures of Christian R&B. Worship Leader’s Diary pulls back the curtain on the complexities of public ministry, serving as ANTHNY’s personal “Book of Psalms.” The project explores the raw realities of leading others in worship while navigating personal faith, purpose, and identity behind the platform.
“Worship Leader’s Diary’ is a collection of songs I’ve woven together through honest language and emotional melodies to highlight a young man’s relationship with God,” ANTHNY shares. “My life as a worship leader is used as a metaphor that others can hopefully find themselves in, no matter where they are in life, and begin a journey of reconnection and intimacy with God.”
The announcement comes alongside the reveal of a powerhouse lineup of guest features,
including Kierra Sheard-Kelly, Naomi Raine, BJ The Chicago Kid, and Ahjah Walls. Ahead of
the September release, listeners will get their next taste of the album with the upcoming lead
single, “Pass Me By” featuring BJ The Chicago Kid.
The album builds on the momentum of his buzzing prelude single, “Imposter Syndrome,” a track
that confronts the sharp disconnect between the highs of being on stage Sunday and the quiet
realities that follow on Monday morning. The song journeys through the mental fight to live in
truth and trust His calling, ultimately landing in a place of repentance and redemption.
ANTHNY’s musical pedigree runs deep. A prodigy who began touring at a young age alongside
gospel luminaries Marvin Sapp, Tye Tribbett, and Bishop Paul Morton, ANTHNY has since
become one of the industry’s most trusted creative forces, collaborating with Maverick City
Music, Chandler Moore, and Travis Greene, and penning the global anthem “No Bondage” by Jubilee Worship.
“Worship Leader’s Diary” will be available on all major digital streaming platforms on September 25, 2026.
