Episode 162: Anthony Church

On this episode of March Forth with Mike Bauman, Mike chats with Anthony Church!

Hailing from Alliance, Ohio, Anthony is a music producer and host of the Proven Knowledge podcast. Proven Knowledge is a collective, brand, and podcast Anthony created with his friend and rapper JayTrey to inspire and spark people's dreams. Since 2016, Anthony has been active as a producer in the hip hop, R&B, and pop realms. He also makes his own instrumental beats, from hip hop, to lo-fi, and alternative.

In 2024, the always active Church had an incredibly productive year. From doing weekly episodes of the Proven Knowledge podcast, to releasing his full-length instrumental LP Unknown Advantage, to working on musical projects with the aforementioned JayTrey, Tommy G, Beatmology, Prickly Pear Records, Soma79, LuiKangOZ, and True School Records, among others, it was quite a schedule for Church.

In 2025, Church has already announced he's dropping his next solo project entitled When Loves The Motive, as well as a collaborative music production EP with Jailan Williams called Proof of Concept, the latter of which releases February 7th.

In this episode, Mike and Church catch up to talk about his big 2024, including his full-length LP Unknown Advantage, doing his first vinyl run, how he manages his busy schedule, his numerous collaborations, his forthcoming When Loves The Motive project, tapping into your creative spirit, and more.

This episode also features an exclusive listen of Anthony Church's instrumental track entitled "Real Home" off his forthcoming project When Loves The Motive!
