Stephen Anastasia
For Stephen Anastasia, singing lead with Reliance cumulates his deeply seated love for Christ, a call to music ministry, and a lifetime love for singing harmony. Stephen has performed as a classical vocalist singing opera, oratorio, and choral music for over a decade, but he has always cherished singing the old hymns and gospel songs with friends and family. His education includes a BM from CSULB and an MFA from UC Irvine. When he isn't singing with Reliance, Stephen stays busy as the Minister of Music at Long Beach First Church of the Nazarene, teaching music at Mt. San Antonio College and Cal Poly Pomona, and being a Daddy to his three busy little girls.
