ABOUT THE CLARK SISTERS

The Clark Sisters have been singing for as long as they can remember, with music as natural a part of their lives as the air they breathed.  With a compelling, commanding fusion of styles as diverse as blues, jazz, R&B and classical, sisters Jacky, Twinkie, Karen and Dorinda created a sound that was new, fresh and entirely their own.  With a blend that can come only in the blood, they have stood for the better part of their lives as a bridge between hallowed tradition and bold innovation. 

The sisters, born between 1951 and 1960, all showed prodigious musical talent from early childhood, and were raised under the careful musical and moral tutelage of their pastor father, and renowned mother, Dr. Mattie Moss Clark.  From the early 1960s to 1990s, Dr. Clark, (1925-1994) was the president of the National Music Department (cq) of the seven-million-member Church of God in Christ (COGIC), the largest African-American, Pentecostal denomination in the United States.  A celebrated songwriter, vocalist, pianist and arranger, and widely known as a demanding taskmaster, Dr. Clark often used her talented "in-house" vocal ensemble to test-run new material and arrangements on which she was working.

The group's current EMI Gospel CD, Live - One Last Time,their first album together in over 12 years, is truly a landmark work.  The live recording comprises nearly two-and-a-half hours of both new material - almost all original - and an absolutely stunning, 21-song medley of Clark Sisters classics that garnered the group a 2008 GRAMMY Award. After two decades-plus of faithful service, this marked the quartet's very first well-deserved GRAMMY.  The Clark Sisters also won five Stellar Awards for Live - One Last Time.  The Gospel Hall of Famers were also recipients of the esteemed "President's Merit Award for Lifetime Achievement" at the GRAMMY Salute To Gospel (June 2007).  For more information go to www.theclarksisters.com or www.myspace.com/officiallytheclarksisters.
