gems of grace

Gems of Grace began in the summer of 2015. It was founded and made up of Suzanne Benavides Sutherland, lead vocals and Regina Dowker, Pianist.  Jerry Rizzi, bass and cello player joined Gems in 2016.  Cassie Clayton, lyricist, guitar and backup vocals joined the band in 2020. We primarily function as a duo; But at times, we will perform as a collective. 

We pray that our music encourages and uplifts the soul that listens to it.  We write each song to radiate His Glory.  

Be a jewel that shines with the brilliance of the Cornerstone - Gems of Grace
