Natalie Maddix, a luminary in the music industry, celebrates a decade of unparalleled success as the founder and creative director of the acclaimed House Gospel Choir. This year marks the 10th anniversary of this groundbreaking ensemble, a testament to Maddix's visionary leadership and her profound influence in the world of music. A talented vocalist, accomplished songwriter, and innovative producer, Maddix has not only pioneered a unique blend of gospel and house music but has also cultivated a diverse community of over 150 members, transforming the choir into a symbol of unity, peace, and resilience.

Under her guidance, the House Gospel Choir has flourished, performing at prestigious venues and events such as Glastonbury and BBC Gospel Christmas, and collaborating with esteemed artists including Kylie Minogue, Paolo Nutini, Rudimental amongst many others. This journey from a modest group of 12 vocalists to an international sensation mirrors Maddix's dedication to harnessing the power of collective music-making as a force for change. Her mantra, “We can't all speak at the same time and have our voices heard, but we can sing together as one voice and be understood,” encapsulates her philosophy and the choir's ethos. HGC burst onto the scene with ‘Salvation’ in a debut single that was crowned BBC Radio 1 ‘Hottest Record’ by Annie Mac, peaking at #1 in the Music Week Cool Cuts Chart and #5 in the Billboard Dance Club Chart. Releasing their acclaimed 14-track LP in October 2020 via Island Records, RE//CHOIRED was born out of a love for sound system culture, the healing power of house music and the group seeking to channel the magic of people working together to raise the vibrations. Their latest releases include collaborations with an eclectic mix of talent including Ella Henderson, Rudimental, Duane Harden and Purple Disco Machine

House Gospel Choir’s live sets create a fusion of the biggest house, gospel and garage tunes that make every performance an unforgettable experience. That is the beauty of HGC, taking us to new heights of euphoria, imploring us to feel empowered, connected and always looking for a chance to uplift our voices with theirs. They remind us of the altitude of our last euphoric club moment and with each note, we’re there again, watching the magic unfold in front of us, ready to receive.

REP Agency offers a comprehensive range of services, including providing outstanding vocalists and vocal arrangements to clients across the industry. This venture supports projects in both the recorded and live sectors, demonstrating Maddix's commitment to elevating the stature and recognition of vocalists and musicians in the music industry.
