He has performed more than 50 solo dates at churches and conferences and recently performed for President George W. Bush. He credits Amy Grant, Stephen Curtis Chapman, Michael W. Smith and the Winans for helping to develop his own style.
According to www.anthony-evans.com, "Even More" features "Anthony's powerful, soul infused vocals on a collection of adult contemporary/pop flavored songs that feature urban and gospel-tinged moments." Evans co wrote all but two of the songs on his album.
