The Christianaires recently announced that Paul Porter, one of the founding members, is leaving the group to pursue a solo career. Paul has been a key component and featured artist for the group for thirty years.
During that time they have become one of the top quartet groups in the world. In 2007 the group was inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame and is widely known for their electrifying and anointed performances.
Porter has also been an intricate part of the group’s difficult struggles to prominence in the Gospel music industry. The Christianaires thoughts and prayers are always with him as he moves on to face new challenges.
The Christianaires will also take the opportunity to grow. Members Tyrone Porter, Ronald Brown, Charles Porter and Christopher Dean are committed as ever to continuing the music ministry in the same tradition. Charles Porter will take the helm as their featured/primary lead singer.
The Christianaires are also actively seeking an additional lead singer. Interested parties should contact Nu Horizon Booking and Management at 601-587-8000.
