The Chosen Few nominated for Group of the Year
The
Chosen Few is a gospel group out of Tarboro, NC that consists of family and
friends who love to spread the word of the Lord through their distinguishing arrangements
of quartet gospel. The group branched out from the St. Luke Youth Choir of
Princeville in November of 1998 and has continued to be a blessing to many. The
group consists of Tuekellia Jones, Stevie Lawrence, II, Caroline Pippen, and
Mechelle Jones.
The Chosen Few has shared
the stage with artist such as The McDonald Sisters, Keith "Wonderboy"
Johnson, Jeff Majors, The Christianaires, The Bolton Brothers, Luther Barnes,
The True Believers, Damon Little and Nu Beginning, Doc McKenzie and the
Hi-Lites, Lisa Knowles and the Brown Singers, Darrell McFayden and the
Disciples, Tim Rogers and the Fellas, George Dean and the Gospel 4, Lee
Williams and the Spiritual QC’s, and many more. They have additionally appeared
on “Spiritual Awakening,” a widely viewed television show that showcases gospel
music artists and Paramount’s Kings Dominion for the last three years, a venue
that often overlooks traditional quartet gospel.
They have had the opportunity to take part in
the Gospel Music Workshop of America and Esther Wooten’s Annual Exclesisa
Showcase. They reference their main reason for singing
is to give God the praise that he deserves and in doing so save souls. The
Chosen Few released their first album "Spiritually Connected" in
November of 2005 and their sophomore project entitled "My Testimony” was
released in February of 2011. They are
currently working on a third recording entitled, “Open Book” that is sure to
blaze the charts and bring a new type of flavor to the quartet genre of gospel
music. God blessed The Chosen Few to sign with the independent record label,
Music Revived Records, Inc.(CEO/President, Milon Fenner, Jr.). This independent
label sets new standards for the quartet world of gospel.
The Chosen Few are
characterized by their unique, yet traditional style of quartet that will put
you on your feet and their distinctive and flamboyant form of dress. Their ministry has touched the lives of many
and with continued favor from God, the plan is that the movement
continues.
