"The Imperials are Back and Better than Ever!!!!"
Band Website: www.theimperials.com
Founded in 1964 by Jake Hess, THE IMPERIALS have always embodied excellence in both music and ministry. Millions have embraced the quality, sound, and popularity of THE IMPERIALS, and they have become a household name around the world. With roots in Southern Gospel, THE IMPERIALS made a name for themselves and quickly became the most visible vocal group in Christian Music. Transcending genre boundaries and experimenting with new sounds, The Imperials earned a devout following in both the Southern Gospel and Contemporary Christian circles.
After more than 40 years of singing and sharing the Word, in 2004 Armond Morales sold the group to the four current members and they became equal partners in the ownership and management of the group. Though the faces have changed, the heart of the group remains lifting up Jesus and seeing lives changed through music. THE IMPERIALS are: Jason Morales, Jeremie Hudson, Shannon Smith and Ian Owens - a group of men who are ordained/licensed ministers as well as powerful and talented vocalists and together comprise a team dedicated to sharing the life and love of Jesus around the world. Excellence in both music and ministry has always been a hallmark of THE IMPERIALS and that tradition continues with the new generation of this timeless group.
MISSION STATEMENT:
To sing and share the gospel of Jesus Christ; to lead people into His presence; to call people into relationship with Him; to bring healing, strength and encouragement to the body of Christ; all the while living by faith and walking in wisdom, integrity and faithfulness to His call.
