Music. Ministry. Brotherhood. These three words best describe the passion, purpose and perspective of Gideon Band, who like their biblical namesake engage in warfare for the advancement of God's kingdom, albeit through their music.
Since its inception over eleven years ago, Gideon has evolved from a go-go band to an assemblage of versatile singers, musicians and worshippers who incorporate a myriad of styles in their music. Whether on stage, at the altar, or in the streets, you can count on Gideon to seamlessly blend soul-stirring worship and hard-hitting praise in a combination that continually thwarts the plan of the Enemy.
Because of their unique ability to deliver not only entertaining music, but also the never-ending message of God's love, Gideon is in great demand at conferences, retreats, revivals, festivals and other gatherings-both youth and adult oriented.
Gideon, one of the few full-fledged bands in gospel music, has been blessed to minister not only locally and regionally, but also to an ever-growing national fan base. Over the years, the band has ministered along with some of the most noted names in the gospel music industry. They include Hezekiah Walker & the Love Fellowship Crusade Choir, John P. Kee and the New Life Community Choir, Donald Lawrence and the Tri-City Singers, Commissioned, Fred Hammond, Mary Mary, Natalie Wilson & the S.O.P. Chorale, Kim Burrell, Angelo & Veronica, Karen Clark-Sheard, Deitrick Haddon, Maurette Brown-Clark, Tye Tribbett, Virtue, Izzy, Adrian King, and Byron Cage.
Gideon has also performed at the famed Apollo Theater; at the Black Radio Exclusive Broadcasters Convention (BRE), at Paramount's Kings Dominion theme park; on the Black Entertainment Television network (BET), at the Gospel Music Workshop of America (GMWA); at the National Council of Negro Women's Black Family Reunion; at the Radio One Network's Expo and at the Gospel Music Association's (GMA) Regional Artist Spotlight Competition where they garnered top honors for urban-contemporary gospel artist.
Led by founder, Cornelius Berkeley, the band is currently promoting its self-produced, ground-breaking debut project -- a live compact disc and video entitled, The Experience: Praise-Intimacy-Worship-Celebration. The band is also eagerly working on its sophomore independent project that has already garnered the attention and assistance of some major music industry players.
