"We're Gospel, Hip Hop, R&B, Funk, Jazz, Rock, Classical inspired... there's no limit to our musical influences," said Ava and Noelle. "When it comes to writing and producing our music we have no barriers!"  Hailing from Minneapolis, home to musical greats like Sounds of Blackness, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, James Grear Company, and Prince, the multi-talented sister duo, Ava and Noelle have been performing and writing their own music since preschool.  Ten years ago, Ava and Noelle, then ages 9 and 7, released their first independent gospel cassette entitled "Rush to the House." "Rush to the House" received raved reviews locally and even garnered outside radio airplay from WYLD in New Orleans, LA.   "Wow, what an exciting time for us," exclaimed Noelle. "To see where God has taken us from "Rush to the House" to our current release is mind blowing." "All the lessons we learned, the places we performed at, all the people that we met have definitely prepared us for this moment," added Ava.  Because of the success of "Rush to the House" Ava and Noelle developed a devout following of fans throughout the Midwest, especially in their home state of Minnesota. Many fans flock to see them perform at local clubs, teen conferences, high school and college rallies. Some fans even join them at church where Ava and Noelle lead the youth in praise and worship at Speak the Word International Church. Ava and Noelle have also shared the performance stage with artists Tonex, Donnie McClurkin, Bishop Eddie Long and Fred Hammond.   Inspired by gospel artists like Mary Mary, Yolanda Adams, Kirk Franklin, and The Winans, Ava and Noelle impact a new generation of gospel fans with their fresh and inspirational sound. "We hope our music makes people look within themselves and discover their purpose while having a great time listening to our music," said Ava. "We want people to know that GOD loves them and that GOD's love is fun, energetic, exciting! It's cool to love GOD!" This message is a prominent theme on their new release, "Dawn of a New Day."   "Dawn of A New Day" is an array of 13 melodic gospel gems written by Ava and Noelle. Each song is an individual stand out conveying unique sounds and clever lyrics. "Life is good even when its bad, its all about how you respond to your situations. That's why Ava and I wrote songs like 'Dawn of A New Day' and 'Stay Alive'," said Noelle. "We like to talk about real life experiences and their positive outcomes while working our fans out to a hip-hop beat or funked-out club jam like 'Stay Alive". The staff at HER? Records unanimously voted "Dawn of a New Day" the lead single for the project." "An intricate drum grove wrapped around a melodic bass line and soulful harmonies, "Dawn of New Day" is about letting go of the past and moving on" said Ava, producer and label CEO.   The introspective "Mirror", encourages its listeners to do a double take. "'Mirror' was a fascinating song to write. It's a song about examining yourself, loving yourself, understanding yourself, and seeing yourself through GOD's eyes, His mirror," said Ava.   Other gems include the hypnotic street banger "Just Because", featuring up and coming MC Lance, the Neptune's inspired track "Lover of My Soul"; the rocked out ballad "Always There", with explosive guitar licks from former Prince bandmate Levi Seacer Jr.; and the praise anthem "I Live to Worship You".  With the release of "Dawn of a New Day" Ava and Noelle look forward to promoting their CD at church events, gospel concerts, summer jams, high-school and college tours, radio, retail and media outlets.    "We had a FAN-TAB-ULOUS time creating this CD and look forward to performing these songs throughout our career," said Ava and Noelle. "Were excited about this project and can't wait to share the love of GOD with the world."    It's the Dawn of a New Day--the Future of Gospel is at Hand!  CD's and cassettes available on HER?
