New Jersey-based singer, songwriter, choir director and multi-instrumentalist Tye Tribbett formed the ensemble Tye Tribbet & G.A. in the late 90s. The group was asked to back country superstar Faith Hill on her tour in 2000, resulting in a flurry of appearances and recording work with everyone from Will Smith, Usher and Mary Mary to Don Henley, Justin Timberlake and Sting.
