Michael Avery
Born in sin, raised Baptist, saved in a COGIC church, filled with the Holy Ghost in a Pentecostal Church and called for the kingdom, Michael Avery is a gifted singer, songwriter and arranger of gospel praise music. His style leans more toward neo-soul rock, with a broad appeal that ranges from young adults to middle-age boomers. Although his style and context are contemporary and relevant to the world we live in today, his foundation is rooted in God being the ultimate source of his gift. Through it all, he seeks to glorify God in a world that longs to know Jesus Christ for who He really is.

Concrete Evangelist
From their earnest beginnings to the level of ministry and talent that they have now reached, CE has been working hard to bring quality music, explosive ministry and professional polish to what they do – spreading the Gospel. With their first single “Shake ‘Em Off” being such a regional breakout in 2003, many people will remember them for this song and this song only, but that only begins to scratch the surface of their artistic output over the past 4 years. From California to Canada, God has blessed them to be able to minister to the youth of our times as well as expose the older generation to the fact that God can minister through “hip-hop music.” Visit their websites at http://concretemusic.net.
