The Electrifying Crown Seekers are a country-tinged gospel group from Marrero, Louisiana with stomping rock sounds and vocal harmonies. Originally from Liberty, Mississippi and trained in Jimmy Reed-style blues guitar, James Williams is now the only original member of the almost 50 year old Crown Seekers, currently backed by members of his large musical family and their community. Throughout those years, the Crown Seekers have brought their music and praises to audiences throughout the United States and abroad including tours in France. The group was featured in the documentary film By and By: New Orleans Gospel at the Crossroads (2013). They have also performed for over twenty years at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.
