Sound Street Signs With Sonlite Records

Arden, North Carolina (January 4, 2024) — Sonlite Records is excited to announce the signing of Southern Gospel trio Sound Street — and their first single release with the label. “Mansions,” an up-beat and exciting song that reminds us of a place being prepared for all who believe in Christ, will be released January 19.

“We are very excited and honored to become a part of the Sonlite family,” says Jarrod Vanderslice, who’s joined by daughter Jaylie Vanderslice and family friend Ryan Bilby in the trio. “We look forward to working along with this great team of experienced and dedicated people, who will help chart and plan our steps as we continue to grow as an artist. We anticipate God to bless these efforts, as we desire to see our music go further than we could ever do by ourselves.”

Since launching their career in July of 2020, Sound Street has garnered the attention of Southern Gospel music fans and tastemakers alike. The trio was selected from the National Quartet Convention’s Regional Artist Showcase to perform on the Main Stage at 2021’s gathering, and was a top 10 nominee for favorite new artist in 2022’s Singing News Fan Awards. Their radio single, “I’ll Take The Old Highway,” peaked at #34 on SGNScoops Magazine’s Top 100, and“The Old Story” debuted at #67 on Singing News’ March 2022 chart.

Adds producer Roger Talley, “I have worked with Sound Street since they began singing. Jarrod Vandersliceand Ryan Bilby have always been great singers and talented communicators. Jaylie inherited the natural, God-given musical talent and is now taking an important role center stage with Sound Street.”

That role is highlighted in “Mansions,” where Jaylie’s compelling vocal carries listeners through joyous reminders of what’s waiting for them in Heaven.

“There is no limit to what this beautiful, talented young lady is becoming,” Talley continues. “She, along with her father, Jarrod, and Ryan are the most exciting new group I’ve heard in a long time. This new recording is a ‘must hear’!”
