Music is properly termed the universal language because it is able to transcend all cultural and ethnic barriers and whisper peace to the distressed, hope to the despondent, and joy to disheartened. No artist speaks this language with more eloquence and style than A7, the sizzling band of brothers whose small-town heritage filters through and enriches their silky, smooth flair.

Ministers, entrepreneurs and educated musicians, having studied a variety of musical genres, the brothers (Arcelious, Alonzo, Alexander, Andronicus, Antipas and Antonio) integrate ministry, business and various musical styles, including jazz, classical, blues, hip-hop, gospel and other sounds, to produce a signature image and an urban soul-stirring flavor in the music capturing audiences from the cradle to the elderly.

"I think that A7 is a fresh group of young men with great messages. They are anointed and can they sing. It's great to see brothers, that are educated and intelligent serving God the way they do." -- Dr. Bobby Jones, BET-TV, The Word Television Network

Having established nods from such notable legends as Shirley Caesar, Dr. Bobby Jones and Dorothy Norwood, A7 is no stranger to the industry. They have gained worldwide notoriety with television appearances on BET's Bobby Jones Gospel, the Angel Network, WORD Network and TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network) gaining national and international recognition for their upcoming self-titled project to include collaborations with four-time Grammy Award-winning producer Michael Mathis and hip-hop producer DJ Wilson.

Known to give outstanding performances in various venues as theme parks; Disney World, Six Flags Over Georgia, Kings Dominion, and high schools, colleges universities and churches across the country, it's no surprise their performance at one of President George W. Bush's inauguration receptions received rave reviews.

Although music is an integral element, it does not completely characterize A7. The brothers are not merely talented musicians and singers, but are also both academically trained individuals.

Growing up in a family where both their father and mother are educators, the brothers understood the importance of having an education because it was emphasized. Their academic foundation began at Christian Way Academy, a private Christian institution that was founded by their father and mother, Pastor James L. Harris and Carolyn Harris, in the mid-1980s. This prestigious school has graduated many students, including A7's other siblings, who are presently outstanding professionals across the state of Georgia.

Furthermore, A7 sincerely believes that success is meaningless without deep spiritual roots and an abounding faith in God. Therefore, not only are they talented and educated musicians, these brothers are also spirit-filled ministers of the Word. Pastors' sons, the members of A7 have dedicated their lives as baptized believers to the ministry of Jesus Christ. Alexander, the lead singer, remarks, "We aim to please God in all we do."
