Biography
Return To Crossroads Label Group
“There is no thing more fulfilling than ministering to the body of Christ and sharing the gospel,” says Amber. “Every dream we have ever had, God has already fulfilled. He never ceases to amaze us!”
It’s true. Over the last ten years of traveling on the road, 11th Hour has seen God do some incredible things. Three incredible records later and a recording contract with Crossroads Music, Amber, Grant, and Jaquita have never been more excited to see what God has in store next.
“I started the group with two friends of mine from my home church when I was 16 years old,” says Amber. “I look back and see God’s faithful hand throughout the years and all I can say is: faith definitely works when put into action and you really trust in the Father.”
Grant and Jaquita joined the group as an act of obedience to God’s calling. “I had such a love for Southern Gospel music that after graduating college, I knew it was not only a passion but also a call, so 11th Hour was clearly the next step to what He had set apart for me,” shares Grant.
Jaquita remembers when Amber called her about joining the group. “I had traveled with them a few times and God was very clear to tell me not to close the door.”
Beyond an obedient spirit, with musical influences such as Karen Peck and New River, the Perrys, Gold City, and the Kingsmen, you can only imagine that 11th Hour has stayed fresh and relevant while maintaining a versatile sound, able to lead congregations in moving times of worship.
After reaching high acclaim, in 2012, 11th Hour signed a recording contract with Crossroads Music Group. “The doors of opportunity that a recording contract opened up were incredible. We had a support that would help us reach more and more people for the Kingdom,” says Amber.
And with that support, 11th Hour has done just that. They’ve had multiple Top 10 Singing News hits and been nominated for numerous awards in Southern Gospel music such as Singing News Trio of the Year and AGM Album of the Year, while Amber was nominated for Soprano of the Year.
In 2014, 11th Hour took home the Sunrise Award at the SGN Scoops Diamond Awards. “It has been such an honor receiving support from people you respect and admire,” shares Amber. “God has so much more in store for us as we travel and bring glory to His name.”
There’s so much more work to be done as these three continue to step out in faith. Amber, Grant, and Jaquita, are ready to go wherever the Lord opens doors, singing and proclaiming the good news of Jesus.
