User:Lisarenee2/Corey Brooks Band

The Corey Brooks Band is a Christian group with C and L Entertainment. They are dedicated to taking the Gospel to as many as possible and "do not apologize for keeping Jesus in the forefront." At the initial formation of the group it consisted of Corey Brooks - lead vocals (previously known for his solo career in Christian Country Music in which he garnered a GMA Dove Nomination ), Craig Smith - guitar/vocals, and Matt Kelly - keys/vocals. In May 2010 the band added bassist, Josh Kerbawy, and in October 2010 Ryan Zentmeyer was added. All the members of Corey Brooks Band are residents of West Virginia with the exception of Ryan Zentmeyer who is from Delta, Colorado.

Autumn of 2010, the band was up for Vocal Group of the Year for the ICM Awards at Trity Broadcasting Network. They are also becoming a very public supporter for the international shoe charity Soles4Souls. To show their support of Soles4Souls, the guys went barefoot as they walked the carpet and presented an award to raise awareness for the over 300 million children in the world that do not have shoes.

The band penned all of the lyrics for their newest album 'Damascus Road' that has had rave reviews in the Christian music community.
