PROFITT Biography PROFITT consists of founder and lead singer, Jim Profitt, alto/lead Tina Lawson, baritone/pianist, Bryan Glenn and soprano/tenor Ellie Riley.  Combined, they have 168 years experience of singing and playing Gospel music in one form or another.  Jim sang with his family for years, but stepped out of the spotlight after the untimely passing of his wife, Shirley.  But, the fire and passion never left him, nor did the calling on his life.  In early 2021, he asked his longtime friend Tina Lawson, if she would be interested in traveling and singing with him as a group, so they formed PROFITT and sang a few dates before realizing they needed to record a new CD with some of Jim’s previously recorded songs, plus a few of Tina’s favorites.  So in August and September 2021, they recorded “Continuing The Journey”, and it took off from there.  In April, 2022, Jim asked another longtime friend, Bryan Glenn, if he would consider joining him as “the third PROFITT”, and he accepted.  Since then, God has blessed them with another CD project and more bookings, so it can be said that they are wide open and ready for what God has in mind.  They have only one goal and mindset; to see lost souls come to know Jesus as their Savior and to bring comfort and hope to those who are hurting.
