With 10 Grammy Awards, 10 Dove Awards, 2 NAACP Image Awards, a Soul Train Award, and more, Take 6 (Claude McKnight, Mark Kibble, Joel Kibble, Dave Thomas, Alvin Chea, and Khristian Dentley) continues to bring extraordinary music to their worldwide audiences. Like a fine-tuned vocal orchestra, the group pushes the boundaries of creativity with every new release and with their ever-evolving live performances.
