Empowering-Impacting-Refreshing-Uplifting-Invoking-Electrifying Experience The Refreshing New Sound and Ministry Of Sonya McGuire Sonya McGuire is a preachers’ daughter who learned to sing, act and appreciate music at a very early age. With music playing such a dominant role in the home, Sonya had no choice than to follow the unofficial “family business". Sonya chose drums to express her musical creativity and talent.Later she developed a love for singing and directing, quickly becoming the obvious choice for musical director at her father’s church. Thus her God-given skills took her from behind the drums to the forefront of the music ministry. With the experience gained from collaborating with other artist and choirs in the metro-Atlanta area, she co-founded the group Agape. Sonya's vocal and leadership abilities were honed during a successful two-year period with the group. Sonya’s unique ministry and style of raise and worship Sonya ultimately transitioned from Agape to form the revolutionary gospel singing force, God's Own. While with God's Own, Sonya traveled the eastern seaboard electrifying audiences, offering them an "original" praise and worship experience. With vocal ability that comparable to none and marveled by many, Sonya incorporates thought provoking lyrics with unmistakable jazz overtones into her music. Her organic songwriting and ability to blend soul, traditional gospel, jazz, funk, praise and worship has caught the attention of many music legends and record executives. Her gift has made room for her to share the stage with artists such as Tye Tribett, Donnie McClurkin, Dorinda Clark-Cole, Kim Burrell, Marvin Sapp, Marcus Cole, Natalie Wilson and S.O.P., Rizen, Nancy Jackson, Angela Spivey, Youthful Praise, Mary Mary, Eugene Cole and Purpose, Crystal Rucker, Benard Johnson, Twinkie Clark-Terrell and the Georgia Mass Choir.
