kevin terry and predestined POISED TO IGNITE THE GOSPEL MUSIC INDUSTRY WITH POWERFUL DEBUT CD – KEVIN TERRY AND PREDESTINED LIVE
Washington D.C. — Kevin Terry and Predestined is not your typical group of gospel singers, but they are dynamic music ministers who rely solely on the anointing of God to communicate messages of love, hope, and salvation. Predestined is comprised of exuberant young adults who strive to have a ministry like Christ; affecting and changing the lives of people from all races, cultures, and backgrounds by simply leading them to Christ through song.
Formally known as Anointed Praise, this Washington D.C. based group was formed in January 2002 by the charismatic and multi-gifted Kevin Terry, a.ka. “The Music Pastor.” These music ministers are known for their phenomenal vocal prowess as well as a multi-faceted presentation that is distinctive, powerful, and eclectic. An encounter with Kevin Terry and Predestined leaves the listener amazed and inspired with no choice but to be ushered into a realm of sincere worship and praise. It is this electrifying quality that has afforded the group numerous opportunities for national exposure backing some of gospel music’s leading recording artists such as Byron Cage, Youthful Praise, Ricky Dillard, John P. Kee, Professor James Hall, Earnest Pugh, Tye Tribbett, and Steven McCoy.
Kevin Terry and Predestined now move to the forefront and are poised to set the gospel industry a blaze with their debut project Kevin Terry and Predestined LIVE. This power-packed project will be released nationally on July 12, 2011 on the Kingdom Music Group label with distribution through Central South Distribution.
“It is indeed a great pleasure to introduce to the Gospel music world, Kevin Terry and Predestined. This choir is on the move and will be impacting Gospel music in a tremendous way for years to come,” says Bishop Ralph L Dennis, president of Kingdom Music Group. “They give us a great mix of the old and the new, making it trans-generational; and they do it well! I am glad to have their debut release on the Kingdom Music Group label.”
Kevin Terry and Predestined LIVE boasts special appearances by dynamic female vocalist Juanita Contee (Jonathan Nelson & Purpose) and singer, songwriter and emerging Praise & Worship artist Jarmel Evans. Sure to be a must-have project for all gospel enthusiasts, every song on this life-changing album is boldly based from the scripture. “I want every listener to feel encouraged and empowered with hope, and clearly hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ,” explains Terry. “I believe that every song should be scripturally sound and the word should do the work.”
The first single, “Hold On” is based on Galatians 6:9. “Sometimes people give up on God and their blessings prematurely and they let go because they don’t see a way or provision being made,” Terry states. “Hold On” urges the believer to be strong because at the end of the test is Victory!” This infectious victory chant will quickly become a welcomed addition to choir repertoires throughout the country.
“Revealed,” based on Romans 8:18, is a message of hope and encouragement to the believer that the suffering they are enduring won’t be compared to the glory that God is going to reveal in them. “God Above,” based on Psalm 121, reminds the listener not to look to people or materials for help, but to God, knowing that He is the source of all our help.
Kevin Terry and Predestined Live is a powerful and timely album that will encourage, equip, and empower all believers.
“This album will help people see that in God they can be transformed by the renewing of their minds. Listeners will realize the power they posses to shatter the strongholds of the enemy. Households, neighborhoods, and cities will be radically changed forever.” — Kevin Terry
