Artist description Gospel One is more than a group. Blessed with lives of restoration, recovery and redeemption from backward living, the thrust of this ministry is the undilluted message of the gospel which is simply, Jesus will set you free! Never one to imitate Gospel One has it's own sound! The music meets people right where they are...on the street,in the crackhouse the back alleys,this music will sneak up on you and touch your heart. This is why many in the Southern California area where they are based, have called upon this ministry for the past 4 years. With 3 CDs under their belt, Gospel One has a wealth of material which can best be described as RnB and Funky...Jazzy and Smooth, Crossover and Mainstream but most of all refreshingly sincere both in performance and attitude. Make no mistake Gospel One is an underground Gospel favorite but they move under the anointing with a professionalism that is comparable to many of today's gospel giants. Check them out for yourself! A message to "set the captives free" Isa. 61:1

Artist History Gospel One began behind prison walls on the 1 yard of Calipatria State Prison in California. Their they ministered to inmates in the prison and eventually upon the release of Art McAllister the group was re-formed in Los Angeles's San Fernando Valley. Gospel One as it is now began in 1998, since that time the group has appeared in many major events throughout Southern California and beyond. The group holds true to it's calling as a ministry by carrying their music to those in juvenile facilities,jails,prisons,rehabs and homeless shelters. They have inspired many to turn their lives around by total surrender to Jesus Christ. They stand as living testimonies to the power of the gospel to break the bondages of drug and alcohol addiction and the revolving door of recurring imprisonment
