Interview regarding today's economy and how people are embracing Gospel music more now than ever before.
Influences
Our parents have been the greatest influences in our lives. For the Bible declares in Proverbs 22:6 - " TRAIN UP A CHILD IN THE WAY HE SHOULD GO: AND WHEN HE IS OLD, HE WILL NOT DEPART FROM IT. " We've become the men we are today because of Gods grace & mercy, and from our parents upbringing.
Next are the Pioneers of the quartet industry. The Mighty Clouds of Joy, the late Willie Neal Johnson & The Gospel Keynotes, Harvey Watkin Jr & The Canton Spirituals, the late Robert Blair & The Fantastic Violinaires, the late Howard (Slim) Hunt & the Supreme Angels, The Dixie Humming Birds, The Pilgrim Jubilees, The Original Hi-Lites, Doc McKenzie & The Hi-Lites, Eric Mckenzie & The Hi-Lite Jrs, Larry Williams & the Voices of Supreme, The Softwinds, Keith " Wonderboy " Johnson & The Spiritual Voices, Darrell McFadden & The Disciples, and a few others! We've learned a lot from each of them down through the years.
Sounds Like
Our sound is very unigue, solely given by God from above (Zion). As the Lord leads we follow.
Emanuel Gaskins, Terry Gadson, Steven Gaskins, Jason Rogers, Omar Purvis, and Jamel Capers, are all natives of Paterson, NJ. Together they are " Sounds of Zion " and they LOVE lifting up the Name Of JESUS. All six are active members in their individual local churches and are dedicated " Men Of God " Saved By Grace.
Many people may see the group as Gospel singers, however they'd rather be referred to as ministers of music; because their music is a ministry. In the city of Paterson, and throughout the Tri-State Area, they're one of the hometown favorites. They receive a lot of support from their families and churches. Sounds of Zion were " First Place Winners " in the nationally recognized McDonald's Gospelfest in 2001 & 2002. They've also starred in the off Broadway Musicals such as: " YOUR ARMS ARE TOO SHORT TO BOX WITH GOD and GOSPITALITY. " On July 27th, 2002 Sounds of Zion were blessed to do their first "LIVE RECORDING" in Paterson, entitled " OVER IN ZION. " S.O.Z has shared the same stage with the following artist: Fred Hammond, Tye Tribbett & GA, Tramaine Hawkins Hezekiah Walker & The Love Fellowship Choir, The Mighty Clouds of Joy, Rev. Timothy Wright & The New York Fellowship Mass Choir, Harvey Watkins & The Canton Spirituals, Doc McKenzie & The Hi-Lites, Spencer Taylor & The Highway QC's, Luther Barnes & The Sunset Jubileers, The Pilgrim Jubilees, Slim & The Supreme Angel's, Tommy Ellison & The Five Singing Stars, Darrell McFadden & The Disciples, The Original Hi-Lites, James Hairston & Youthful Praise, Mietta Stancil-Farrar & Tehillah, Melanie Daniels, Lorraine Stancil, Keith " Wonderboy " Johnson & The Spiritual Voices, Melba Moore, Cissy Houston, Dee Dee Warrick, Shirley Murdock, Natalie Wilson & S.O.P, Virtue, and Desiree Coleman Jackson.
Their mission and purpose in singing is to bring souls to Christ. Their original premiere song " OVER IN ZION " sends a message for all believers to meet in Heaven one day. If one soul is saved, set free & delivered. Then Sounds of Zion have done their job, and that's what it's all about. Spreading the Gospel, reaching the lost at any cost. And introducing them to Christ our Saviour.
