Raised in a Christian home and surrounded by gospel music continually from an early age on, Anthony Facello was destined to have a hand in the music that he loved and was so passionate about. For the past 15 years Anthony has had the wonderful privilege and opportunity to sing with such remarkably talented groups within the gospel music industry including Heavenbound, The Down East Boys, Journeymen and most recently the award winning Mercy’s Mark. Taking a break from the road this past year has afforded Anthony a much welcome time of replenishment, rest and thus bringing forth a renewed focus and an even clearer vision for his heart’s cry and the call of ministry that is upon his life. Anthony stated in a recent interview, “I came off the road knowing that it was time for me to take a brief break, I wanted to strive to get some priorities of my life in order and take some time to look at my past journey and then gaze ahead at where I wanted to be in the future…I embraced and enjoyed some special alone time with God, I was able to pray and seek counsel from a few trusted friends who I remain accountable to. Through this time I recognized that God was challenging me daily with such a new and fresh urgency to share my heart again through the gift of song and offer insight from my own personal testimony to the many hurting, wounded and broken that we all have daily contact with. Along with that I can share of His amazing grace, mercy, unconditional love and acceptance that He continues to daily reveal to me. It’s the great commission that remains the driving force behind what I am called to do. I love people and I cannot wait to get out there again, and reveal my passion in an even more marvelous way to the people, for the cause of Christ. His steadfast faithfulness has brought me to a new crossroad in my life.” While turning the page of this new chapter in his life, Anthony has put together a new group that is certainly going to take the gospel music world by surprise. The talented and anointed group is called CROSSROAD, and it features Anthony Facello, Justin Howard and Brian Alvey. Each young man in the group brings an exuberant love, respect and admiration for gospel music. Their lives are dedicated to reaching out with a fresh new zeal and passion for those who desire a closer relationship with the Lord. Each member of the group brings something special and unique, that when combined is “simply amazing”. Their musical style and diversity is richly grounded in southern gospel, tight harmonies, a rich blend and yet will cover several other styles and genres with one common denominator…”it is music that speaks to the heart of the listener”. Crossroad is in negotiations with several labels in regards to a project.
