[Tampa, FL] GC, which stands for God’s Chozen, is making preparations to go on tour to share their music with ministries and venues across the U.S. This highly anticipated news is a result of signing with veteran talent development manager, Joe T. Butler of Higher Standard Management Group.
This strategic move goes beyond a desire to perform in front of countless large audiences. It’s their opportunity to enlarge their platform in order to help break audiences from all forms of bondage, fear, anxiety, hurt, and pain. Davis states, “It is our goal that by the end of any appointment to sing, all who has heard our music will know that there is hope and that they can survive any turmoil occurring in their life.” Since the release of their debut cd, “Take Off Your Mask” in August of 2009, GC, under the leadership of Emile Davis, was able to acquire numerous ministry opportunities within their region. However through this alliance, the group is expected to increase their reach to countless people across the United States and beyond.
Those that are new to their music can expect to hear GC’s unique ability to fuse urban and traditional gospel with flavors of rock and pop. The ensemble manages to captivate audiences of all denominations and races through their distinct sound. In fact, it was because of the extraordinary ability to attract a wide range of people, that drew the attention of the nationally recognized Times Publishing Company as well as an urban radio station located in the Tampa Bay area. With the group’s notoriety increasing, Davis quickly recognized the need to partner up with someone experienced within the gospel music community. In seeking out the appropriate assistance in taking their message of God and His love to the masses, the group was able to successfully form a relationship with Joe Butler.
Joe, who has worked with the Kenoly Brothers, Ordained, and R. Anthony to name a few, is highly skilled in navigating the careers of various types of singers. His artists have shared the stage with Yolanda Adams, Kirk Franklin, Marvin Sapp, Dorinda Clark-Cole, Karen Clark, Reverend Timothy Wright, along with numerous other gospel greats. Joe states, “Emile and his group have a fresh and edgy, yet highly effective delivery. Audiences of all ages are able to relate to them, their lyrics and sound because of the transparency of their hearts off and on the stage.”
With their tour kicking off in Florida and Georgia, be sure to keep an eye out for GC within your city this year.

Bio
Based out of Tampa, FL, God’s Chozen (more commonly known as GC) brings forth powerful lyrics and unique sounds through thought provoking songs. By fusing urban and traditional gospel with flavors of rock and pop, the ensemble manages to capture audiences of all denominations and races. Compromised of gifted singers and students of the Gospel, Emile Davis (CEO and lead), Alecia Davis (wife to Emile), Makeda Dubose, Deon Lewis, Eric Bostic, Tanasha Whiting and Elijah McCloud. GC has successfully garnered the support of countless ministries.
This newly formed group released their debut album, “Take Off Your Mask”, worldwide in August 2009. By merging their passion for God with singing the Gospel in an innovative way, they managed to gain the attention of an urban radio station and one of the nation’s most read newspaper companies, Times Publishing.
Their sound provides faint resemblances of influential artists such as Michael Jackson, POD, Toby Mac, Sam Cooke, Kirk Franklin, Israel Houghton, William Murphy, Mercy Me, Dietrick Haddon, Rance Allen, and Chris Tomlin. There is no surprise that by being inspired by such artists the group is able to minister in various venues and relate to diverse crowds. However, merely standing before audiences and delivering flawless notes is not what drives the group to push forward with their music. GC continuously seeks to use their platform to help break audiences from all forms of bondage, fear, anxiety, hurt, and pain. Sports apparel company Obscurity to Greatness (OTG) immediately recognized their stance on being an encouraging light for the world. This was cause enough for OTG to make GC one of its spokes models for advertising its fashion line.
With long term goals to create a safe haven for the broken, to assist others in developing and honing their artistic ministry gifts, GC is determined to answer God’s Call.
