Take 6

“The baddest vocal cats on the planet.”

Quincy Jones

10 Grammy Awards.
10 Dove Awards.
Gospel Music Hall of Fame inductees.
And more.

Heralded by Quincy Jones as the “baddest vocal cats on the planet,” TAKE 6 — Claude McKnight, Mark Kibble, Joel Kibble, Dave Thomas, Alvin Chea, and Khristian Dentley — is the quintessential a cappella group and the gold standard for vocal excellence.

With 10 Grammy Awards, 10 Dove Awards, a Soul Train Award, and induction into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, this multi-platinum-selling sextet blends six virtuosic voices into crystal-clear harmony. Their signature sound layers syncopated rhythms, inventive arrangements, and deep grooves into an intoxicating mix of gospel, jazz, R&B, and pop.

Over the years, they’ve collaborated with legendary artists including Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Brian Wilson, Ella Fitzgerald, and Whitney Houston. Touring the globe and crossing genres with ease, TAKE 6 is widely recognized as the preeminent a cappella group in the world.

Their new recording, coming soon, entitled RHAPSODY, will celebrate some of the greatest composers and transcendent songs in jazz. Their recent recording, ICONIC, debuted across seven Billboard charts simultaneously, while their recent live appearances range from Jacob Collier to Grammys on the Hill on Capitol Hill, where they advocated for musicians’ rights and creative work.
