GI consists of four anointed and appointed young gentlemen by the names of Branden, Marlon, Curtis, and Lamonte. The group has been singing together across the world for 10 years. They are singers, dancers, songwriters, and musicians. It is rare that you find all of these talents wrapped up into one unit. At many of their concerts, right after they wow you with a choreographed set, they will grab their instruments and sing/play the next set. The young gentlemen are also entrepreneurs. The group owns and operates its own label, BGA Records, where group member/manager, Branden Anderson serves as President/CEO, and the other members hold executive positions within the company. Serving as excellent role models and being advocates of education, every member is either attending, or has graduated from college. Branden graduated from Elizabeth City State University with a bachelor’s degree in Music Industry Studies. Marlon graduated from Virginia State University with a bachelor’s degree in Mass Communications. Curtis is a Music Education Major at Virginia State University. Lamonte is a Music Media Major at Norfolk State University.
GI has already accumulated a heavy fan base across the country having performed at major venues and events such as The World Famous Apollo Theater, The Verizon Center, The Bobby Jones Gospel Artist Retreat, GMWA Conventions, and many more. The group has opened and/or performed with artists such as Mary Mary, Trin-i-tee 5:7, Tye Tribbett and GA, Shirley Caesar, Byron Cage, Tonex, Dorinda-Clark-Cole, the Beach Boys, and many more. In January of 2005, GI completed their first European Tour. Highlights included meeting and singing for the president of Italy. In 2006, GI was honored to be invited as a special guest to perform at the inaugural ceremony for Virginia Governor Timothy Kaine. In September 2006, the group won the award for Group/Duo of the Year at the Virginia Gospel Announcers Guild’s 1st Annual Virginia Awards Ceremony.
GI recently returned from Tacoma Washington after working with producer extraordinaire Derek Clark (Ziel, Dawkins and Dawkins, Fred Hammond) to complete their latest album which is set to release this Summer! This album has something for everyone, including teenagers, young adults, and the grown and mature audience. It embraces various styles of gospel music, including contemporary and traditional. The leading hit dance anthem “Get Up†will have everyone dancing on their feet for the Lord!
