*Selected of God Choir to Host Evolution Listening Suite in Anticipation

of Upcoming Full-Length Album During Stellar Awards Weekend*

*NASHVILLE, TN, January 9, 2012* – Ambassadors of Chrysler’s*’* *“Imported

from Detroit” *Campaign, *Selected of God* Choir announces their Evolution

Listening Suite during *the 27**th** Annual Stellar Awards* weekend at

the *Sheraton

Music City Hotel, 777 McGavok Pike in Nashville* on *Friday, January 13**th*

* from 10am-8pm and Saturday, January 14**th** from 9am-9pm*. Selected of

God will give fans, gospel industry VIPs, media and celebrity peers an

exclusive sneak peak at tracks from their upcoming album, *Evolution *(Sing

2 Praise/S2P)set to drop this spring.

 

Produced by *Grammy*-winning, super producer *Asaph Ward* and Music

Director *Stephen Anderson*, *Evolution* is a poetically written; contemporary,

urban and inspiration record.

 

The choir’s chilling rendition of Eminem’s “*Lose Yourself*” will lead the

CD, but another stand outs include; a powerful remake of the wildly popular

*Clark Sisters* hit’ *“Sunshine”. *Full of great accents, the explosive

musical arrangement offers a sultry accompaniment to amazing vocals and

boasts featured lead vocals by the actual legendary composer herself;

*Elbernita

“Twinkie” Clark-Terrell*. Selected of God is the 1st choir to ever record

“Sunshine”.

 

No stranger to the success of a well done remade hit; Selected of God

didn’t take the process lightly. According to the group’s humble Founder

and Director *Larry Callahan*, “It was definitely an honor to remake

“Sunshine”, but there was a lot of weight…not only did we want to honor the

original writer and lead vocalist, who blessed us with her presence on our

project, but we wanted to maintain the integrity of the Clark Sisters’

work—it was a great responsibility”.

 

Other promising tracks include “*Dwell in Me*”, an upbeat, fun composition

by Stephen Anderson, that showcases the choir’s signature hip church swag. “

*Deliver Me*” is a mid-tempo tune is written by Asaph Ward and national

singer/songwriter Shawn McClemore with featured leads; *Stephen Anderson*and

*Nikki Ross* from Houston. TX.

 

*Eric Dawkins* of the widely respected *Dawkins and Dawkins* joins SoG

on “*Forsaking

All Others*”. The heartfelt ballad by Adrian B. King proclaims the artists’

stance to not let anyone get in the way of honoring HIM. “*Be Still and Know

*” showcases *Chrystal Rucker,* a rising gospel phenomenon, the powerful

gospel artist comes in on vamp and takes you to church!

 

Anderson’s “*He’ll Do Just What He Said*” promises to be a foot stomping

Sunday morning experience in your car and “*New Creature*” interprets the

scripture that states if a man be in *Christ*; he can start over. Written

by Asaph Ward and his mother, the late *Dawna Ward*, the mega producer

expressed; “my mother was a choir trainer and helped groom me to be the

producer I am today…I know she would be elated at the work Selected of God

has done with our song and this album.”

 

The 24 member collective takes a few unexpected turns on their *Evolution*;

infusing other genres with traditional gospel; “*Change is on the Way*”,

written by Asaph and Billy Powell is led by hip hop artist Aaron Parrott,

while “*Making A Way*” is an up-tempo house/techno song with featured

vocals by *Chiffon McNal* and *Rachel Stokes*.

 

“What’s makes Evolution so special is that it is truly a collage of great

gospel music that can touch individuals from every walk of life and be a

blessing to the nation,” says Stephen Anderson.

 

As impressive as the material on the project is the caliber and regional

variety of musicianship it features. *Evolution *is graced with some of the

most seasoned musicians in the world including drummers; Chris Johnson (Los

Angeles), Joshua Mayfield of the famous Mayfield Brothers and of gospel

legend lineage; J Drew-Sheard a.k.a. JDS. Ethan Former (Los Angeles) and

Allen “Snoop” Evans (Detroit) Robert Skinner and Aaron Mayfield (Mayfield

Brothers of Kansas) lend the bass, with Michael Bereal also from LA, and

Kevin Powell of Connecticut on keys and North Carolina’s Timothy Mole on

guitar.

I used this homework assignment to make a short yet self-explanatory 5 Image story.

This is the story of a cold-blooded killer living seamlessly among us. I tried to create a horror-like atmosphere in the first few pictures and towards the end an unexpected yet “funny” plot twist by adding the app BeReal, a Social Media Platform consisting of only one post per day, of whatever you are doing when you get the notification.

All photographs were taken in the basement of my workplace. I used a little bit of fake blood for the hammer and the hand, and I used my colleague for the killer. In total, I ended up taking a little over 400 pictures, but I manage to narrow it down to the best 5. (The hardest part to do btw lol)
