Maverick City
ABOUT
Founded in 2018 by Tony Brown and Jonathan Jay, Maverick City formed as a result of the founders hosting seventeen songwriting camps, which brought together over one hundred Christian artists and songwriters creating hundreds of songs. Maverick City started with a dream to make space for folk that would otherwise live in their own separate worlds. To break the unspoken rules that exist in the CCM and Gospel World! But more importantly to be a mega phone for a community of creatives that have been pushed to the margins of the industry of Church Music. What brings us together, and that sound that is vivaciously smacking you in the face the first time you hit play on on a Maverick track isn’t the sound of a community that centered around their deprivation, it’s the audacious sound of true belonging: The beautiful harmony of a long lost family. The group is a favorite across many including fellow artists and celebrities such as Justin & Hailey Bieber, Sean “Diddy” Combs, and Stephen Curry.
Since its inception, Maverick City Music has garnered GRAMMY and DOVE Award nominations; multiple Billboard #1 albums and singles, 250M+ streams and over a million YouTube subscribers. In 2021, Maverick City Music collaborative EP with Upperroom, Move Your Heart, debuted #1 on BIllboard’s Gospel Album Chart. The collective which includes artists such as Naomi Raine, Chandler Moore, Brandon Lake, Dante Bowe, and many more is set to release their next album, Old Church Basement, in collaboration with Elevation Worship on April 30th.
