Musical Coordinator/Director -  LaNorris McFadden

Surrounded by a legacy of great gospel singers and musicians LaNorris McFadden was destined from birth to be musically talented.  His intuitive magnetism for the art of music was first manifested at the curious age of six as he displayed an uncanny ability to play both the piano and the organ.

McFadden quickly became an avid student of the gospel industry, learning all its particular facets.  Between the ages of age eleven and fourteen, McFadden’s accomplishments included the successful writing and composing of several songs which were both recorded and published by local recording groups.

Noted throughout many circles as the youngest minister of music in Palm Beach County, LaNorris McFadden’s uniquely energetic and youthful style commanded the attention of both the young and old.

His writings and recordings included projects with the Palm Beach Mass Choir, Annette “Mee Mee” White, Recovery in Motion and Blue Sky Saturday just to name a few.  LaNorris has served as a District Coordinator for the Gosplosion Florida Music Convention and has hosted and produced the gospel T.V. show “Jesus Is Lord”.

LaNorris is a proud member of Redemptive Life Fellowship where he serves the vision of the renowned Bishop Harold Calvin Ray and Prophetess Brenda Ray.  Here he formulated the powerfully energetic youth choir known as Shabach and Co. as well as ministers within the youth department.

His talent also afforded LaNorris the occasion to serve as the State Minister of Music of Florida for the Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship where he collaborated with some of the nation’s top musicians and gospel ministers.

Clearly his deeply rooted gospel connections coupled with his musical acumen have provided opportunity for extensive travel throughout the nation to such cities as New York, Baltimore, Atlanta, Nashville, Memphis, Dallas, and Phoenix just to name a few.

McFadden is also highly sought after as a workshop teacher on the subjects of Praise and Worship, Vocal Techniques, choir Decorum and Minstrel vs. Musicians.

LaNorris is founder and director of LaNorris McFadden and PROFF a young, dynamic group with a contemporary gospel sound.  He is also the founder of For God’s Glory Music, a full service Production and Publishing Co. which produces local music talent.

He has released two projects with PROOF: “New Attitude” and “God’s Treasure”

The long awaited, highly anticipated 3rd project, “Determination – Live in Miami” will release January 2007!

Poised as an up and coming virtuoso and minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, LaNorris has great expectations for his future including the launching of LMGO (LaNorris McFadden Global Outreach) where he’ll share his love for God and gospel music while providing hope throughout the nations.

He is the faithful and joyful father of three, Zakiah, Lyriq and JaMari.
