Artist:The Katinas
Song:Thank You
Album:Destiny
The CCM group The Katinas had success in the early 00s on Gotee Records. They are still around but they record for their own label. The Katinas are five brothers from Samoa. They all sing but John and Jesse are the lead singers. Sam plays keyboards, James plays bass and Joe plays drums. They also write songs. They grew up singing in church and the family moved to the state of Washington in 1988. Their mom died shortly after the move. They released a couple of albums and their live shows got them a deal with the CCM label Gotee owned by Toby Mac of DC Talk. The Katinas had success on the Christian charts with the 1999 album The Katinas and the 2001 album Destiny. Toby Mac produced and The Katinas wrote most of the songs. The Katinas' music has more of an R&B feel than most CCM artists so it also appealed to gospel fans. They released a total of five albums on Gotee including a live album and a Christmas album. Since then they have released albums on their own Destiny label. Their latest album was a 2018 Christmas album. It doesn't look like they are active right now. They played a show a few months ago but that looks like a one time thing. Here's The Katinas performing Thank You on a Gaither DVD.
