New Comer Marica Chisolm took some time out of her schedule to speak with uGospel.com about her debut album “Simply Worship”. According to Chisolm, “Simply Worship” is a Praise and Worship album that people will be able to sing at their church. She explains that she did the album because it was difficult for her to find worship music. She encourages worship leaders that are seeking worship music, they will be able to find it on “Simply Worship”.
Marica was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia; she started singing at the age of two, while a member of Big Miller Grove Baptist Church, where she was remained a faithful member until the age of 20. At this point in her life, she had developed such a hunger for God and a heart for true worship, which led her to accept the call of becoming a psalmist. She then went on to become a member of Citadel of Hope COGIC where God began to truly craft her gifting. Marica was able to usher the people into the true presence of God using songs that were inspired by the Holy Spirit, and could see that lives were being changed as a result. This led her to continue ministering, writing more songs that would bring about a true worship experience for God’s people.
Many gospel greats have served as inspiration for Marica, including her grandparents, Willie and Josephine Wilder. Other artists she admires include Kim Burrell, Kurt Carr, Judy McAllister, and Contrell Jones. She has done background vocals for Dorinda Clark-Cole, Karen Clark-Sheard, Pastor Hezekiah Walker, Dottie Peoples, Byron Cage Vashawn Mitchell and Kelly Price and opened for Ron Kenoly and Don Moen. Marica is committed to working with other artists that have a desire to glorify God through song, and will be releasing her own praise and worship projects soon.
