Sing to the Lord a new song. Sing his praises in the assembly of the faithful Psalms 149:1. The words of this scripture are the ultimate depiction of the foundation of Thaddeus Johnson. Thaddeus grew up singing in the church since the age of 3. He easily learned each song being sung at church and made his presence known upon receiving the microphone. He has grown up singing Gospel music, however throughout his years of training, Thaddeus has acquired the love of Country, Classical, and Rhythm and Blues. He lives his life with the challenge of singing any song presented to him. He thanks God for his gift daily and tries to touch as many lives as possible. Thaddeus dedication and committed to his talent is best explained by Erma Bombeck, When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, I used everything you gave me.
