Pastor Antione J. Hutchins has served in all areas of ministry from Minister of Music to National Evangelist, to Senior Pastor. Not only does he preach the Word of God, Pastor Hutchins is also an anointed and skilled psalmist who brings the same deliverance to the people of God through his music ministry. In October of 2013, after signing with SOV (Sounds of Victory), he recorded his widely anticipated debut project, along with the Christian Unity Choir, live at the Christian Unity Baptist Church (C.U.B.C.). Preaching is his passion; however anyone that has experienced his ministry knows that he is a worshiper. Many have testified that you can feel God’s greatness and authority when Pastor Hutchins ministers.

Produced by Stellar Award Winner Phillip Carter the project begins with “Awesome God You Are”.  Moving to the title cut “He Still Loves Me”. The current single "He'll Make It Alright" is a "Baptist Style" remake of the original version done by the legendary choir Milton Brunson and the Thompson Community Choir.

Phillip Carter and SOV - LIVE FROM ZION

I am on a two week promotion of my new CD. I want to encourage you,who are trying to promote your products, to have a plan before you start recording your cd's so that when your cd is released you will have a system of recoupment in place. It's called the "END GAME". What is my desired outcome from the start. You should have one in business and in ministry. I am currently carrying out a plan that I started 2 years ago. Yes It takes that long sometimes but when you see the fruit of your labor come to pass you then understand the reason for the process. BE ENCOURAGED

God Is An Independent Artist

God Is An Independent Artist. Isn't it wonderful to know that the God we serve is an Independent Artist. He is free to do what He wants. He is creative. He doesn't give certain churches or ethnicities preferential treatment. He works on no one else's timelines but His own. He doesn't need a Major Record Label to validate who He is. He is secure in Himself. He has appeared on every major Gospel and some secular shows (when invited). He is not only and Independent Artist but a best selling author and mentor as well. In fact He is the only Independent Artist who has remained #1 on all the charts (where His music is played) since the beginning of time. God has never won an earthly major music award yet He has influenced countless other winners and they acknowledge Him in their award speeches(even the ones who seem to show no evidence of God in their lives). God doesn't charge for His services instead He freely gives to all who are willing to receive and ironically His Kingdom and influence continue to grow. He even brings His group with him when He travels (3 In 1). God is an Independent Artist. God's musical styles range from Gregorian Chants to Holy Hip Hop. God is a trendsetter. God is a bilingual artist. He is not bound by personal preferences, denominations or ideologies. When God performs He seems to stop the show every time with His overwhelming Spirit. God can perform with tracks, bands, orchestras, acapella groups etc. God even does personal concerts in the souls of those who know Him. I have seen God use musicians both large and small. God is an Independent Artist. God never turns down engagements. He schedule is unimaginable. Although God shows up whenever you invite Him, He seems to work best when you put Him first on the program. For bookings please use knee-mail. He responds quicker that way. From the Spirit of God through Phillip Carter.

Phillip Carter Releases His Latest Single.....

Stellar Award Winning Artist and Well-Known Producer Phillip Carter Releases His Latest Single
New Music with a Timeless Message

Contact: Phillip Carter, 301-509-3459

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27, 2014 /Christian Newswire/ -- A familiar face in the Gospel music industry has once again crafted another amazing single sure to minister to the heart of man. Phillip Carter (photo), President and CEO of Sounds of Victory Ministries (SOV) and co-founder of the Independent Gospel Artists Alliance Conference, releases his rendition of "A Friend Unfailing," a 1996 Dove-nominated single recorded by the late Elder Q. Ricardo "Ricky" McCrimmon. Doing what he does best as an accomplished recording artist, musician, and producer, Carter takes the song's simplistic, yet meaningful lyrics, marries them with amazing musical and vocal arrangements, and tops them off with flawless production to yield another hit that will keep the church choir sound ever resonating in Gospel music.

"Elder McCrimmon did a phenomenal job when he originally recorded this song," says Carter. "Nearly two decade after its first introduction to the world, I am honored to share this song with a new generation of Gospel music listeners and bring its profound message back to the memory of those who were blessed by it at its original release. To able to share the story of our Savior's goodness and faithfulness toward us and remind people of the hope, restoration, and love that can be found only through Jesus Christ is truly amazing. I am humbled, and I take not this opportunity for granted."

Much like the music we have come to know and love from Phillip Carter and SOV, this single delivers a classic choir sound that is easily teachable to beginner and advanced choirs alike. Similar to his renowned single "I Love the Lord" from the 2009 project entitled "Songs from the Storm," this new release, "A Friend Unfailing," encourages listeners of the abilities of our God and the importance of the application of praise for the great things He has done. It is a song linking an encouraging message and easy music with which choirs and congregations both can connect. This is another great release fit for Sunday morning.

The multi-talented Carter, along with his ensemble, Sounds of Victory, received a 2010 Stellar Award for "Fan Favorite Choir of the Year," and a total of six Stellar nominations. Carter also produced the 2010 Stellar Award Winner for Children's Performance of the Year, "Amazing" by Dr. Emory Andrews and the Oxon Hill High School Gospel Choir and is an esteemed workshop facilitator and choir director. The single has been serviced to radio and is available for purchase now on CD Baby. Sheet music will be available beginning January 31, 2014. An independent artist in a class of trailblazing independent artists, Phillip Carter and SOV are leaving permanent imprints on this ever-changing genre of music.
