Gold City Announces New Tenor

- Danny Riley
Tuesday, June 16, 2009

Gadsden, AL- Gold City announced today that their new tenor will be Chris Cooper. Chris, a native of Tuscaloosa, Ala., has been involved in Gospel Music for the past 12 years, singing with numerous groups.

“I’ve been praying for a change in my life,” stated Chris. “I had given no thought of going back on the road—little did I know that my dream job was on the way! I am extremely excited about this opportunity.”

Chris and his wife, Kristin, have been married for four years. They have two children, Kylie, 3, and Kaden, 2.

 “We had a lot of great singers apply for this job," said group manager Daniel Riley. "It was a really tough decision but in the end I felt like Chris was best equipped vocally, and after much prayer, it was clear that he was the man for this position. He has a very unique voice and I believe people will like the sound.”

Chris’ first date with Gold City will be July 1st at Tusculum Hills Baptist Church in Nashville, Tennessee.

Congrats on your new job, Chris. I remember you filling in with L5 some years ago & thought you did a terrific job then. I, also, remember you singing with another group before that but can't remember who they were. This was back in the 90s, I think. I'm anxious to hear you with my buds, GC. Blessings on this transition for you.
