Maverick City Music is a collective of worship artists based in Atlanta, Georgia, known for a multicultural approach to contemporary Christian worship music. They won the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album in 2023 for their collaboration with Kirk Franklin (Kingdom Book One) and have released multiple acclaimed worship albums.
Maverick City Music occupies a distinctive space in contemporary Christian music — they make worship music that is musically innovative (R&B, gospel, pop influences) while maintaining theological integrity. Songs like "Jireh," "Promises," "Man of Your Word," and "Wait on You" have become widely used in church worship contexts because they are both musically excellent and lyrically sound.
Their Grammy-winning collaboration with Kirk Franklin (Kingdom Book One, 2023) brought wider mainstream attention to artists from both the contemporary worship and gospel traditions. The collaboration reflects genuine musical and theological alignment rather than crossover for commercial purposes. See Maverick City Music overview.
Maverick City is connected to Tribl Records and the broader Elevation Church music ecosystem through some collaborations. Families who have concerns about Elevation Church should be aware of this connection, though Maverick City's own theological content is broadly evangelical and sound.
