BEAUMONT, Texas — The Grammy and Stellar award nominated gospel group is coming to spread the love in Southeast Texas this spring.

All of the original members of the gospel group Commission are touring across the nation and bringing the reunion experience with them. 

Fred Hammond, Marvin Sapp, Mitchell Jones, Karl Reid, Keith Staten, Michael Brooks and Michael Williams are coming back together. The reunion experience is set to take place at Ford Park Arena on April 9.

The Detroit natives barely raised enough money to produce their first album in 1985, sources say. Fast forward 35 years, all of their combined album sales are worth more than $12 million.

Tickets go on sale Friday, March 6 at 10 a.m. for the early April show. The show will start at 8 p.m. and doors open at 7 p.m.

The Reunion Experience tickets will be available for purchase online at www.fordpark.com, at the Ford Park Box Office, and Ticketmaster.com. Ticket prices start at just $23 and VIP passes are available.

Commissioned - The Reunion Experience is coming to Ford Park Arena on April 9, 2020. Doors will open at 7 PM, and the show starts at 8 PM. 

How did a few young guys from the hood of Detroit—one of the roughest areas in the world—end up coming together, ultimately becoming one of the most respected and celebrated male gospel groups of all time? 

How could they go from barely raising enough to record one album in 1985 to successfully recording 12 albums while being the launching pad for multiple Grammy, Stellar, Dove, and BET Award winning artists Fred Hammond and Marvin Sapp whose combined album sales total over 12 Million? 

How did this hidden gem end up having their music featured in multiple movies and popular television sitcoms, being THEE group that inspired countless other multi-platinum selling artists including Jamie Foxx, Silk, Boyz II Men, Guy, Jodeci, and 112 (to name a few)? 

Now ask yourself, HOW IN THE WORLD could I miss this EPIC experience? DON’T! This fall, all of the original group members—Fred Hammond, Mitchell Jones, Karl Reid, Keith Staten, Michael Brooks, Michael Williams and Marvin Sapp are coming back together again on one stage with an amazing melodic sound and mind-blowing harmony that’s STILL as incredible as it was from day one! 

Tickets to Commissioned – The Reunion Experience will go on sale March 6, 2020 at 10 AM CST and will be available for purchase online at www.fordpark.com, at the Ford Park Box Office, and Ticketmaster.com. Ticket prices start at just $23 and VIP passes are available.
