Founded by Tony Brown and Jonathan Jay in 2018, Maverick City Music emerged from a series of writing camps dedicated to bringing together a diverse range of artists from various genres who would normally not have the opportunity to be in a room together.

The songs that emerged from these writing camps would lay the groundwork for the success of Maverick City Music.

In two years, the group secured multiple top ten releases on the Billboard charts, garnered over 300 million streams worldwide, and sold out their first-ever tour which took place in arenas across the country.

The impact of Maverick City Music continues to resonate as they bring together millions of people and provide a sense of community to those who needed a place to go.

In 2021 Billboard crowned Maverick City Music as the #2 Gospel artist of the year. Maverick City Music has earned multiple Stellar Gospel Music Awards, Dove Awards, and a Billboard Music Award.
