Music like of virtue

Virtue is a popular Dove Award winning, Grammy-nominated gospel music female trio. The group currently consists of sisters Ebony Holland, Karima Kibble and Heather Martin.

The group was formed in 1994 by Karima Trotter (Kibble), Ebony Trotter (Holland), Negelle Sumter, and Shavonne Sampson. All four women attended the historically Black Seventh-day Adventist institution, Oakwood University (then Oakwood College).

With a coveted Dove Award win, Grammy and Stellar Award nominations and nearly 20 years of memorable music to their credit, to say that Contemporary gospel trio Virtue have made their mark on the gospel music scene at large would be an understatement. Introducing a fresh take on the fusion of Urban and gospel music with their 1997 self-titled debut, the group - composed of sisters Ebony Holland, Karima Kibble, and Heather Martin – embarked on a journey of sonic excellence that would lead them from humble Southern beginnings to the top of gospel charts with signature hits like “Get Ready,” “Put Your War Clothes On,” “Til’ You Believe,” “Lord, I Lift My Hands,” “Let the Redeemed,” and “Greatest Part of Me.” Their discography shines on the hems of five studio albums - VIRTUE (1997), GET READY (1999), VIRTUOSITY (2001), FREE (2003), and TESTIMONY (2006) – that brought with them no shortage of critical and commercial acclaim. Now, with a trail of gospel gems in their rearview, the sensational sister act is looking to forge a new path with their long-awaited comeback project. Led by a highly anticipated new single shipping to radio and digital outlets this fall, its parent album is set to follow in spring 2015.
