Men of Note began in 2011 as the fulfillment of the combined dreams of Glenmar Flores (Tenor) and Byron Johnson (Tenor). The two gentlemen shared their musical ideas with Phil Grayson (Tenor) who agreed to add his vocal talent to the effort . Wanting to add a fresh dimension to the music ministry at Berean SDA Church in Los Angeles, where all of the members worship, the three founders recruited Bicko Fanta (Baritone) and Tonna Anuligo (Bass) and began building a repertoire of primarily acapella music while making a conscious effort to explore a wide range of styles. Each of the five vocalists brought a solid and unique musical background to the group which resulted in a process of “arriving” at a musical interpretation through creative collaboration. In early 2015, due to a medical leave of absence taken by Phil, Men of Note added a young talented tenor/baritone by the name of Darryl Banner, who upon Phil’s return, remains as a 6th member of the ensemble.

This musical exploration has brought enjoyment and satisfaction to the group which they hope their audiences hear as they minister in song. And ministry is the unquestioned purpose that motivates the group’s music. It is the message of gospel of Jesus Christ that Men of Note wants to leave with all who come to hear!
