About Me


Staggers, a Washington, D.C. native started singing gospel music more than 18 years ago in his church choir. Back then Marc recalls the obstacles he faced when he decided to dedicate and give his singing talents to the Lord. "It has been my own personal struggles that have drawn me to Christ. I had to overcome many obstacles along the way spiritually, mentally, physically, emotionally and financially. Fighting the enemy to return to church... Fighting against the naysayer's to learn to sing...Fighting to recover from the loss of my father and the near loss of my own life....Fighting back from financial ruin and fighting to overcome my lack of self confidence". The challenges for Marc were great, but he overcame them all and is now able to share his love of the Lord with the world.
Staggers soulful voice has carried him into many venues including singing background for Mom and Pop Winans at "From the Heart Ministries"; and Kathy Myers at Lincoln Theater in Washington DC. He has also performed and recorded with the Late Clifton Dyson and Stu Gardner, musical director for Bill Cosby. Other behind the scenes opportunities have included producing a radio talent show that showcased new gospel acts called "If You Can Dream" which lived a short season on Radio One's WYCB 1340AM in Washington, D.C. Staggers has also been featured on numerous live performances, including The Million Mom's March in Washington, D.C and at the British Embassy for the Washington Redskin Darrell Green Charity foundation.
A love affair that Marc began to share just three years ago was with his first recording "Rejoice". This CD was a special dedication to his father, the late John H. Staggers a college professor, community and political activist and an ambassador for Christ. "This project was a divinely inspired fulfillment of my fathers dream. My father always spoke of a vision that my brother Reggie and I would one day combine our talents to serve God. I'm proud to say his vision has become a reality".
