Gospel musicians have always been among the most skilled and pioneering in the world. The voices of gospel singers have stood as the standard for heart and soul expression in popular music. The iconic Clark Sisters were a group that embodied this pioneering sound across eras that had such an impact well outside the gospel community. From their chart-topping classic, “You Brought the Sunshine” to being sampled on Jay-Z’s “Family Feud,” their influence and impact is undeniable.
