The new single from Motown Gospel artist Gene Moore featuring India.Arie, "Beautiful" will already be a candidate for the end of year selections. It's been a very slow start for good quality soul music so far this year but this stands head and shoulders above most that I've heard so far this year alongside Ledisi, Billy Valentine and Crutchfield Jones' EP.
Moore is a highly respected background singer for artists such as Kirk Franklin and India.Arie. His critically acclaimed 2017 Motown Gospel debut album "The Future" earned him a Stellar Award nomination for New Artist Of The Year. The follow up "Tunnel Vision" arrived in 2019.
Moore has featured here several times: "Coming Home", he featured on Lexi's "I Choose You" and as one of the featured guests on P.J. Morton's "The Better Benediction" (on "Watch The Sun" LP), and with Kim Burrell on Red Hands' "Thanks".
A son of a pastor, Moore was born just outside Houston, TX, but didn't start singing until he was 15. He graduated from Sam Houston State University with a degree in Radio and Television minoring in Advertising with the intention of pursuing a career in journalism. However, he landed a spot as a gospel announcer on KWWJ Gospel 1360 AM transitioning to Contemporary Christian Music at 89.3 KSBJ-FM and realised that music is what he really wanted to do.
He signed to Motown Gospel in 2013 but it took several years whilst Motown figured out what to do with him before his debut album "The Future" was released.
