Take 6

The six voices of Take 6 represent the pinnacle of vocal artistry — a 10-time Grammy-winning a cappella gospel sextet that has earned recognition as the most acclaimed vocal group in the world. These masters of harmony blend jazz sophistication with gospel spirituality, creating crystalline arrangements that span jazz standards, R&B grooves, pop anthems, and sacred music across their 45-year career.

Headed by founding members Claude McKnight and Mark Kibble alongside vocalists Alvin Chea, Khristian Dentley, Joey Kibble, and David Thomas, the sextet delivers what Quincy Jones calls "the baddest vocal cats on the planet." Their seamless six-part harmonies create what amounts to a human orchestra, with beatboxing rhythms, vocal percussion, and intricate arrangements that transform songs into showcases for their collective genius.

Expect an immersive evening where each member rotates lead vocals while maintaining their signature "luminous extended harmonies that light up a song with a combination of jazz stratosphere and gospel earth," as PopMatters describes their sound. The group's legendary collaborations with Ray Charles, Ella Fitzgerald, Jacob Collier, Whitney Houston, and Stevie Wonder have shaped their expansive repertoire, which might include everything from Eric Clapton's "Change the World" and Stevie Wonder's "Overjoyed" to gospel standards like "Wade in the Water."

Live, Take 6 creates an atmosphere of pure joy and spiritual celebration. Reviews consistently highlight their infectious energy, playful choreography, and ability to transform any venue into an intimate musical experience. Audiences become part of the performance through call-and-response moments, clapping rhythms, and the group's warm between-song storytelling. Their latest release Iconic hit #1 on the Billboard Jazz chart, cementing their status as artists who continuously evolve while staying true to their gospel foundation.

This four-night run celebrates over four decades of "sweet harmonies and inspiring messages of hope" from the group that essentially redefined contemporary a cappella music and continues to set the standard for vocal excellence.
