GCU was founded in 1974 by Phyllis Williams and the late Sam Davis under the premise to bring together multiple church choirs within the Twin Cities to spread the gospel through song. This awesome choir has electrified audiences with an unforgettable upbeat sound and continues to sing songs from classic to contemporary gospel music.

This choir has performed before sold-out audiences, from the local church to the Fitzgerald and Ordway Theaters. Gospel Choirs United Concerts have featured many national recording artists such as Daryl Coley, Keith Pringle, Steven Roberts, Ricky Grundy, Jeffery LaValley, Kathy Taylor and local favorites, Robert Eddie Robinson, JD Steele, Gary Hines and the late Vera Jean Jenkins to name a few.

Over the 42-year history ,the choir has received recognition for participation in the highly acclaimed “Gospel at Colonus”, a Broadway Musical which also had a run at Minneapolis’ Guthrie Theater. Other theater credits include participation in the Christmas Musical “Harlem Nutcracker” at the Northrop Auditorium, and in the Plymouth Music Series “Witness” production with James Earl Jones at the Minneapolis Convention Center.
