Inspired by singers like Rev. Donald Vails and Thomas Whitfield, Seven time Stellar Award-winner and gospel legend, Byron Cage began singing gospel music as a teenager. He went on to serve as music director for the New Birth Church in Atlanta and to become a minister of music at Ebenezer AME (African Methodist Episcopal) Church in Fort Washington, MD. Together with his nine-vocalist group Purpose, which he formed in the mid-'90s, Cage recorded three memorable live albums of spirituals: Transparent in Your Presence, Dwell Among Us, and The Prince of Praise. He received five Stellar Awards for his 2003 Prince of Praise, and received a 2006 Grammy nomination for his 2005 release An Invitation to Worship. Live at the Apollo: The Proclamation appeared in 2007, with Faithful to Believe arriving in 2009 and Memoirs of a Worshiper in 2012. In March of 2022 “The Byron Cage Show” launched on Cage’s Instagram Live (74K Followers), Facebook Live (140K Followers), and Malaco’s YouTube channel (600K Followers) at 6pm PST/ 9pm EST.
