THE SOUND
Six voices. Rich harmony. Music with purpose.
7th Element is a six-voice vocal ensemble known for sophisticated six-part harmony, compelling arrangements and a distinctive sound that moves effortlessly between gospel, jazz, R&B, pop and inspirational music. Formed in 1999, the ensemble brings together four brothers—Curt, Darren, Garth and Kevin Greene—with longtime friends Marc Dwyer and Dean Dennis. At the heart of 7th Element is a shared belief that music can do more than entertain. It can inspire, encourage and connect people across generations, cultures and musical traditions. That belief also explains the group’s name.
The six visible members create the harmony, but the Seventh Element—the unseen presence of God—is at the center of the music and its purpose.
Marc Dwyer — First Tenor
Darren Greene — Second Tenor
Garth Greene — Third Tenor
Curt Greene — Fourth Tenor
Kevin Greene — Baritone
Dean Dennis — Bass
Over 25 YEARS OF HARMONY
Since its formation in 1999, 7th Element has built its sound around a musical relationship that reaches much further back than the group itself. The Greene brothers began singing together years earlier, developing the instinctive blend that comes from family voices. Marc Dwyer and Dean Dennis brought extensive backgrounds in a cappella, gospel and contemporary vocal music, creating the six-part sound that became 7th Element.
Collectively, members of the group have performed nationally and internationally and have appeared with or alongside respected artists across gospel, jazz and contemporary music.
