Lonnie Hill, the multi-talented Songwriter, Producer, Vocalist and Musician, blazed a powerful road into the music world that even today shows no signs of ending.
Lonnie Hill born in Tyler TX, proceeded his move into the Gospel
world. After advancing in this escapade, he met and performed with a multitude
of famous artists such as the renowned Gospel Keynotes. He also shared the stage
with other well-known artists such as James Cleveland, the famous Staple
Singers, The Mighty Clouds of Joy and the multi-talented Stevie Wonder. Lonnie's
talents never seemed to end, especially in the music industry were he has also
performed with the fabulous Mr. Edward Hawkins and the talented Isaac Hayes.
Later in his music career, Lonnie decided that he wanted to explore more than
the Gospel industry.
