NEW YORK, NEW YORK (Monday, April 25, 2016) -- BET Networks has announced the new programming that's heading to its network of stations which includes BET and Centric. The announcement came at its annual Upfront presentation last week, with a commitment to offer more original programming than ever before. It was announced that Two - time GRAMMY®, Soul Train, Dove and Stellar Award winning recording artist Tye Tribbett has been tapped to host the network's new Sunday morning inspirational series JOYFUL NOISE.

Tribbett states: "I have not stopped smiling and dancing since I received the news! I am beyond honored to be continuing such a monumental legacy as new host of BET's Sunday morning inspirational show 'Joyful Noise'. Dr. Bobby Jones has laid an INCREDIBLE foundation and I'm so ready to continue to BUILD. All I have to say is LET'S GOOOOOO!"

The hour-long show will feature a blend of performances from today's gospel super stars, rising new artists, powerful personal testimonies, and insightful man-on-the-street interviews. In addition to a variety of musical performances, each show will also feature a power-filled sermonette by one of the nation's leading pastors. Finally, JOYFUL NOISE will showcase amazing local churches from around the nation, giving viewers the opportunity to get their hometown church featured on the show.

In addition to Tribbett's new hosting job the radical singer, songwriter, and preacher who's known for his edgy and energetic live performances is also preparing for his next live recording. The session, titled A Bloody Win, will take place on Friday May 6, at The Redemption Center in Greenville, SC beginning at 7p ET. The recording is free and open to the public.

About Tye Tribbett:
Born in Camden, New Jersey, Tye Tribbett is the son of two preachers. Growing up surrounded by hymns and gospel music, Tye learned to make music at an early age. As a teenager, he honed his skills as a keyboardist by accompanying such regional notables as Steve Middleton and the Tri-State Mass Choir of the Edwin Hawkins Music & Arts Seminar. In 1996, Tye founded a gospel choir, Greater Anointing (G.A.), consisting of a group of friends whose hearts were set simply on praising the Creator through the gift of great music.

G.A burst on the national stage when their song "Let Go, Let God" was featured on the soundtrack of Steven Spielburg's hit animated feature film, "The Prince of Egypt". Tribbett and G.A. soon found themselves sharing the stage with such superstars as Gloria Estefan, LeAnn Rhimes, Elton John, Luther Vandross, and Stevie Wonder. An invitation from mega-producer David Foster to perform on stage at the annual City of Hope event at Universal Studios in Hollywood led to national tours singing backup for Faith Hill, Tim McGraw and Don Henley. G.A. 'retired' in 2009, allowing its members to pursue their personal goals and dreams. To date, Tye has released five albums (three with G.A) and has sold over 1 million records worldwide in his career. He has won two Grammy® Awards, four Stellar Gospel Music Awards, two GMA Dove Awards and a Soul Train Music Award.
