The 4 Korners has recently signed on to Green Leaf, a television series whose executive producers are media mogul Oprah Winfrey and LionsGate Films.

Additional stars include Oprah Winfrey herself, Keith David as the church bishop and Lynn Whitfield as the bishop’s wife.

Members of The 4 Korners grew up together in Cartersville, GA, a small town 30 minutes northwest of Atlanta. Isaac, JT, and Jerrod are all graduates of the Atlanta Institute of Music and Clarence is a student of the highly-acclaimed pianist and professor/instructor Kevin Bales. The 4 Korners released their self-titled album in 2013 and recently recorded an EP and video documentary at 800 East Studios in Atlanta under the guidance of award-winning producer Khari Cabral-Simmons. Each band member also serves in the house band of his Sunday church service.
