Gospel Music Celebration Cruise to Set Sail to Hawaii in 2023

Johnson City, TN  – IMC Concerts has announced plans to bring the Gospel Music Celebration to Hawaii in 2023. Known for its gorgeous beaches, stunning blue ocean and remarkable scenery, Hawaii is commonly known as paradise on earth. Gospel Music lovers will soon have the opportunity to visit this picturesque wonderland as IMC Concerts celebrates its 15-year anniversary by presenting the Gospel Music Celebration in Hawaii during the week of  June 10-17, 2023.

It’s been five years since IMC offered its first cruise option to Gospel Music lovers. Gospel Music Celebration cruises presented by IMC and Inspiration Cruises have historically sold out as fans have enjoyed trips to many popular destinations around the globe. In 2018, IMC presented the very first Gospel Music Celebration Cruise in Hawaii and the cabins sold out within weeks. IMC is delighted to once again offer this trip of a lifetime in 2023. 

Gospel Music Celebration Hawaii will set sail aboard Norwegian Cruise Line’s elegant Pride of America from the Hawaiian capital on Honolulu on June 10, 2023. Passengers will visit Maui, Hawaii Hilo, Kona and Kauai before returning to Honolulu on June 17. This spectacular island-hopping cruise gives travelers the unique opportunity to spend time on multiple, iconic islands over the course of an unforgettable week without leaving the United States. 

In addition to exploring the beauty of sparkling waterfalls, dormant volcanoes, the vibrant array of color in the rainforest, and the majesty of God’s creation, cruisers will enjoy exceptional music from some of Gospel music’s most popular artists, including  The Booth Brothers, The Hoppers, Greater Vision, Legacy Five, Triumphant Quartet, Greater Vision, Joseph Habedank, TaRanda Greene, Geron Davis and Kindred Souls,  as well as a few special surprise guests. 

According to IMC President Landon Beene, limited cabins are available for this exciting Gospel Music Celebration.  “Space is limited to only 1000 passengers, so we expect this cruise to sell out very quickly. We are excited to be able to offer a cruise to our passengers who may otherwise be uncomfortable traveling outside of the US. We encourage everyone to book their reservations very soon to secure a spot.” 

Beene also states that the first 500 passengers will receive a Free Luau, valued at $300 per person.

“This luau exclusive for our passengers was and is one of the highlights of the Hawaii cruise, as we take over the entire Luau with our passengers. We fill the Hawaiian air with performances from Gospel music artists, as well as traditional Hawaiian music provided by the locals,”  states Booth Brothers member, Michael Booth, who was a part of the Hawaii Gospel Music Celebration in 2018. Additionally, passengers who book online will automatically receive a $100 discount per cabin.

Due to the worldwide pandemic, IMC was unable to present cruises during the latter part of 2020 and during 2021; however, IMC was the first Gospel Music cruise to return to the high seas in 2022 when the Gospel Music Celebration sailed to the Caribbean.

“We had a blast,” Beene states.  “We enjoyed a ship full of happy, safe and healthy passengers, who were delighted to be sailing once again. We are expecting a fantastic week.” Make plans now to be a part of the 2023 Hawaii Gospel Music Celebration, which sails June 10-17. 

Call 888-245-4284 or visit  www.GospelMusicCelebration.com  to learn more details, request a brochure or reserve a cabin.

Plan Your Winter Getaway

Are you ready to take a caribbean adventure with mtq, january 27- february 1, 2025, singing at sea is the  world’s largest southern gospel music cruise where kids 15 & under sail free*.

“It’s the only all-Christian charter in our industry, and I like that environment.  A retreat from the world. We live in the world every day; but for one week we don’t have to deal with it, we’re with God’s people. I think everyone needs a retreat like that every once in a while. “ – Mark

Come join us as we escape winter and set sail for the Caribbean – don’t delay,  this cruise sells out fast!  When you choose MTQ as your host, you’ll enjoy a private concert only available to those who cruise with us.   Reserve your cabin today by calling 1-800-334-2630 and let Templeton Tours know you want to cruise the Caribbean with Mark Trammell Quartet!

The 49th Annual Singing at Sea cruise has a lot to offer when it comes to stunning ports of call, gourmet food, and luxury accommodations on the Carnival Freedom but the most loved thing about this trip will always be the music!

Do we have an adventure for you! The 49th Annual Singing At Sea Cruise is booked for January 27 – February 1, 2025 and will stop at Grand Turk and Amber Cove! Let MTQ be your host group as we sail from Port Canaveral, Florida on the Carnival Freedom . After a day at sea, our first stop will be the port of Amber Cove, Dominican Republic – This is one of the most beautiful ports you will cruise too and is one of the film locations from the original Jurassic Park movie.

The following day, we’ll stop in Grand Turk where the beach is the main attraction and for the day! You can spend the day lounging on the beach, but you can also do a little shopping around the port.

The 49th Singing at Sea cruise has a lot to offer when it comes to stunning ports of call, gourmet food, and luxury accommodations on the Carnival Freedom but the most loved thing about this trip will always be the music.  The Mark Trammell Quartet, along with 25 other Southern Gospel groups will be singing from dawn to dusk.  Concerts are held in every theater aboard the ship, every day…and all day on sea days!  The casinos and bars are closed making this an all-Christian charter cruise.  On Singing at Sea you’ll take your family and friends on a cruise that will build your walk with God, provide luxury accommodations for your enjoyment and visit ports of call where you’ll behold the beauty of God’s creation.

It’s like being in a small town for a week – you’re all together.  Unlike a regular concert, we don’t have another concert in another town to be at the next day.  Fans enjoy being on the ship with their favorite groups, walking the halls with their favorite singers or being able to sit down and talk with them.

Call 1-800-334-2630 to reserve your cabin.

Be sure to tell them you want to cruise with MTQ!

Scroll down the page to learn about our ports of call, the ship, and pricing options!

Departing from Port Canaveral, FL

Monday, january 27, 2025.

Monday we will head to Port Canaveral, get on board and settle in for a week of Gospel music on the seas! Don’t forget to grab a quick lunch on the Lido Deck, enjoy some sun on a lounge chair and be on deck for the sail away.

TUESDAY, January 28, 2025

As we sail toward the Eastern Caribbean there is a lot to enjoy on our first day at sea! Concerts, Bible Studies, Christian Comedy, fine dining, the spa, whirlpool, or just soaking up the sun on deck! No matter how you choose to spend your time, we know you’ll enjoy the fellowship and atmosphere of a full charter Christian cruise.

AMBER COVE, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

Wednesday, january 29, 2025.

As we come into port at 10:30 AM you may wonder, “Where have I seen this before?” That’s because Amber Cove was one of the film locations for the original Jurassic Park movie! In port, you can walk through a Jurassic Park exhibit, enjoy an afternoon at a massive pool created for cruise passengers, take a taxi into town to shop or visit the Spanish fort at San Felipe.

GRAND TURK, TURKS AND CAICOS

Thursday, january 30, 2025.

Our second stop is Grand Turk in Turks and Caicos. If you’re a history buff, you will remember that Grand Turk was the area that John Glenn and the Friendship 7 splashed down in 1962. There is some shopping around the port but if you’re looking for a beach day, Grand Turk is your spot! Right next to the dock is a beautiful beach of white sand and blue water.

FRIDAY, January 31, 2025

Our last day together at sea will be filled with lots of singing, preaching and time to relax and visit. On both sea days, we will be at our product tables and would love to spend some time with you if you want to drop by!

Concluding in Port, Canaveral

Saturday, february 1, 2025.

All dates & locations subject to change.

Carnival Freedom

Carnival Freedom is a Conquest-class cruise ship operated by Carnival Cruise Line. If you cruised with MTQ last year, you will feel right at home on this ship! On the Lido Deck, guests can avail themselves of Guy Fieri burgers at Guy’s Burger Joint, the Mongolian Wok, the best burritos and tacos at Blue Iguana Cantina or the classic Carnival favorite, Pizza Pirate. The ship also has an incredible steakhouse and seafood shack for an additional charge. This ship was refurbished in 2019 and has a 203-foot-long water slide for the kids!

CAN YOU AFFORD TO CRUISE WITH MTQ?

15 years & Under

Remember that children 15 years old and younger sail FREE*! You won’t find a more affordable and inspiring Christian vacation on the seas. Call 1-800-334-2630 and ask the reservationist for specific information for pricing on staterooms and start planning your 2023 Christian cruise today! Remember to request the MARK TRAMMELL QUARTET as your cruise host!

Interior staterooms start at $725 per person and go up to $895 per person. If you choose a stateroom in this price range, saving $15 a week* will pay for your cruise (and possibly your port charges depending on the stateroom you select.)

Oceanview Staterooms start at $995 per person and increase to $1,055 per person. By saving $20 a week, you could afford to wake up to a view of the Atlantic Ocean every morning!

*Suggested saving tips are based on a 52 week period. All pricing is per person. *Port charges do apply on passengers 15 years and younger.

Description

Join us for another fun-filled week at sea in the beautiful islands of the Caribbean! In this vacation like no other, we have booked a fabulous ship for a cruise filled with fellowship, entertainment and soul-stirring music from some of the  biggest names in Gospel Music while adding several new faces that you will fall in love with.  Get ready to tap your feet and lift your voice as you listen to beloved artists including The Booth Brothers, Triumphant Quartet, Greater Vision, Legacy Five, The Sound, TaRanda Greene, Poet Voices, Chosen road, Comedian Dennis Swanberg, The Kramers, Geron & Becky Davis and many more!  As usual, this cruise celebration takes place amid the luxury and attentive service of one of  Holland America’s finest ships, the Nieuw Amsterdam.  Like with any other Gospel Music Celebration, we are preparing phenomenal and exclusive programs such as "Gerald Wolfe's Gospel Music Hymn Sing" and also the stories behind the songs from the writers during the "Song Of A Lifetime" hosted by Phil Cross. Every evening will include full length concerts from your favorite artists, inspiring moments of worship and soul-stirring morning messages.

DEPARTING:  SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 2   -   FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA  EMBARKATION: 10:30AM – 1:30PM DEPART: 3:00PM  Enjoy and get familiar with this gorgeous ship and then enjoy the “Sail-Away” concert with all of the artists featured during this celebration!

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 3 - DAY AT SEA Bask in the joys of a Christian cruise aboard this magnificent vessel as you bond with the family of God. During breaks from the stellar program that’s been designed for you, take to the ship’s deck for some cool ocean breeze. 

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 7:00AM – 3:00PM -  GRAND TURK, TURK AND CAICOS Rumored to be the island in the New World where Christopher Columbus first made landfall in 1492, Grand Turk is a quintessential Caribbean paradise. A quarter-mile from shore, the ocean floor drops 7,000 feet along a protected reef, meaning these waters attract as many humpback whales, manta rays, and blue marlin as they do divers. It also offers plenty of charm in the historic buildings of Cockburn Town.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1:00PM – 10:00PM - SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO Enjoy another freshly prepared breakfast buffet before venturing into the blue cobblestone streets and Spanish colonial architecture of Old San Juan.

“We had such a blast connecting with fans on our theme cruise in 2022, so bringing it back in 2024 feels like it was meant to be, especially with the addition of some surprise guests,” said Jill Whelan, Celebrations Ambassador for Princess Cruises. “Sailing with our fans brings us so much joy and this cruise will undoubtedly be a special reunion, taking us back to where it all began – on a Princess Cruise.”

Super fans may opt for a special Love Boat VIP Package, featuring an invitation to an exclusive cast cocktail party, reserved seating for the cast Q&A in the Princess Theater, front-of-the-line access for autographs and photos, dinner at the Captain’s Table, plus a themed cruise t-shirt and mug.

He Sang ‘What a Fool Believes.’ But Michael McDonald Is in on the Joke.

The singer and songwriter with a silky-smooth voice has written a memoir with Paul Reiser that recounts his story of pain and redemption with dashes of humor.

Reporting from Santa Barbara, Calif.

• Published May 9, 2024 Updated May 11, 2024

The voice of Michael McDonald has been compared to velvet , silk and sandpaper , melted chocolate and last year, by a besotted 11-year-old girl, an angel . He has harmonized with the best in the business. But his latest duet might cause even the most Botoxed foreheads of Hollywood to furrow.

“How you like us so far?” joked Paul Reiser, the actor and comedian, from one corner of a squishy sofa in McDonald’s Santa Barbara, Calif., aerie on a recent Tuesday morning. He was there to talk about the singer’s memoir, which they wrote together and will be published by Dey Street Books on May 21.

In the other corner, emanating the equanimity that’s as beloved as his baritone, was the man whose 50-plus-year career has included backup vocals for Steely Dan, Elton John , El DeBarge , Toto , Bonnie Raitt and on and on — backup so extensive and distinctive it’s inspired playlists on Apple Music and Spotify . He was wearing a paisley-patterned shirt, black trousers and, as one might expect of an angel who must tread this cursed Earth, puffy Hoka sneakers .

McDonald, 72, has also spent decades in the spotlight, albeit sidlingly, often with his famous blue eyes shut . (“Singing is such an intimate act,” he explains in the book, “and like kissing, it does no real good to see what the other person is doing.”) He led the Doobie Brothers in various iterations with his gospel-inflected keyboard style; released nine solo studio albums traversing multiple genres and continues to make live appearances at venues from Coachella to the Carlyle .

The book is titled “What a Fool Believes,” after the Grammy-winning hit McDonald wrote in 1978 with Kenny Loggins, though with some hesitation. “I thought, ‘Well, that’s just too obvious,’” he said. “I wanted it to be something clever and mind-provoking, and I couldn’t really think of anything because, you know, I have a problem provoking my own mind.”

He was convinced by Reiser, who among many other projects wrote the best-selling books “Couplehood” and “Babyhood” in the 1990s, and a follow-up, “Familyhood,” in 2011.

“I mean, how lucky am I?” McDonald said.

“Awwww,” Reiser said. But seriously: “He’s very introspective, which you don’t see at first and then you go, ‘Oh, this guy is deeper than you think.’” A beat. “Not that I thought you were shallow!”

As if in a marathon therapy session, they plunged together back to the past. McDonald grew up Irish Catholic, bracketed by two sisters in a suburb of St. Louis. His father was a streetcar driver and ex-Marine, a teetotaler with an eye for the ladies and a beautiful singing voice. His mother worked in a trading stamps store and had a weakness for pep pills. The marriage didn’t last.

He had an Aunt Mame with a Victrola from which, at age 5, he learned to imitate Mario Lanza warbling “ Love is a Many-Splendored Thing ”; an Aunt Bitsy who introduced him to Rodgers and Hammerstein; and an Aunt Ann Catherine whose record collection included, revelatorily, Ray Charles. Burt Bacharach was a big influence, too. Beatles-wise, he gravitated more toward McCartney than Lennon.

“I always related to him,” McDonald said, “because I could sense from him that he heard a lot of the same music I heard — that kind of barroom, Tin Pan Alley chord progression.”

In one devastating passage, McDonald writes of getting his girlfriend pregnant in eighth grade and biking over to confront her parents, who insisted, along with his own, that she give the baby up for adoption. Too young to sort through this emotional wreckage, he steered away. “Disappearing became my MO,” he writes. “Distancing myself from whatever it was that might require accountability.”

He dropped out of high school and joined a series of colorful-sounding bands — the Majestics, the Sheratons, the Delrays, the Guild, the Blue. Old ballrooms; natty threads. Beer and marijuana became staples, and later, after he moved to Los Angeles and began breaking into the big time, cocaine.

Referred to Steely Dan by the drummer Jeff Porcaro in 1973, he “came to rehearsal a few days later and knocked everyone out,” Donald Fagen, the band’s surviving founder, wrote in an email. “There was a serious discussion about whether he should replace me as the lead singer, which would have been my personal preference. But, for some dumb reason, I was voted down. I didn’t insist, and I’ve regretted it ever since. I mean, here’s this monster singer and musician, and he’s also really funny and a sweetheart of a guy. What’s not to like?”

Patti LaBelle called about recording “ On My Own ” (1986) with McDonald, after a solo version went sour. “I said, ‘The person I would love to sing it with is quiet, beautiful Michael,’” she remembered. Recently they crooned it together on a jazz cruise on the Norwegian Pearl where, she said, he confessed nerves beforehand; when he emerged onstage, the crowd went bananas. “He’s one of a kind. He comes out whispering and then — all this power. It’s like he doesn’t even open his mouth, he’s just so laid back.”

Indeed, so constitutionally low-key is McDonald that Loggins, with whom he also composed “ This is It ” and “ I Gotta Try, ” and who released his own memoir, “ Still Alright ,” in 2022, didn’t even know his old collaborator is about to join him on the bookshelves.

On the phone, Loggins remembered the first time he heard McDonald in the Doobies’ “ Livin’ on the Fault Line .” “I just felt like, ‘Oh, this is going to be a major American voice,’” he said. “He kind of goes into a trance when we write, and if I say ‘play it again,’ he won’t remember, so I have to record all the time. We have completely different styles vocally, but blend really well. It’s not logical.”

In 2005, the duo, along with Hall and Oates, Christopher Cross, Toto, Steve Perry and others, were affectionately spoofed in J.D. Ryznar’s web series, “ Yacht Rock .” A strain of the much-maligned catchall “adult contemporary” category was suddenly rebranded as “smooth music”: gleaming with high production values and a general mellifluence; the polar opposite of punk. McDonald was portrayed as the genre’s earnest common denominator: its anchor, its intergenerational secret sauce, who stumbles out of fashion and then rises again when “ I Keep Forgettin ’” is sampled by Warren G in 1994.

McDonald compared the yacht-rock phenomenon to oldies radio. “Even though I was a little ambivalent about both, at first, they turned out to be the two best things that ever happened to us from the ’70s,” he said, “because we kept getting airplay.”

This wasn’t his first time as a figure of comedy. In 1981, in an SCTV sketch, Rick Moranis portrayed McDonald driving intently down a highway in a convertible to clap on headphones and sing bits of backup for Cross’s “Ride Like the Wind” before rushing off to his next gig. McDonald contributed a song to the 1999 “South Park” movie and sang at a fictional “30 Rock” benefit . In “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” (2005), an electronics-store manager played by Jane Lynch is excoriated by an employee for broadcasting a McDonald concert video ad nauseam. (“If I have to hear ‘ Yah Mo B There ’ one more time I’m going to yah mo burn this place to the ground!”) And in 2013 Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake donned silver McDonald wigs to sing “ Row, Row, Row Your Boat ” with him.

We have his current writing partner to thank, or blame, for the chapter title “Doobie or Not Doobie, That Is the Question.” Reiser, an accomplished musician himself who can sit down at the Yamaha and spontaneously ripple off a Rachmaninoff concerto, first encountered McDonald performing during an event at a neighbor’s house. “And in a surge of moxie, I went, ‘I live literally next door, and I got a music studio with two pianos that I put in just in case this ever happened,’” Reiser recalled. “Would you like to come over?’”

A jam session ensued. A friendship developed. Then the pandemic descended. McDonald thought that during lockdown he might apply himself with renewed vigor to his painting hobby . Reiser had another idea. “He’s the only reason the book exists, as far as I know,” McDonald said. “Putting one foot in front of the other was never my strong suit, on my own power. By myself, I become like a blob.”

McDonald’s wife, the singer Amy Holland, wandered briefly into their living room, which is large, cozy and barnlike, with plenty of blankets and candles and a banjo mounted on the wall bearing the visage of her mother, Verna Sherrill Boersma, who did a hillbilly routine as Esmereldy in the 1940s and resembled …. was it Bette Davis? “Celeste Holm,” McDonald said.

He and Holland were married in 1983, with David Pack, the lead singer of Ambrosia performing “Biggest Part of Me” at the reception. They have two adult children, a submissive golden retriever, and a possessive Chihuahua who sleeps in between the couple.

One of their previous pooches cringed at his singing, McDonald noted, and would try to pry his master’s hands off the piano keys every time he played.

“Everyone’s a critic,” Reiser said.

Working with McDonald, he said, was often just a process of having him slow down and fill out anecdotes that, to him, seemed like no big deal — Steely Dan partying in the penthouse of a London hotel, for one. “I’m going, ‘That’s like a Fellini movie!’” One chapter is devoted to an extended bender with the band’s co-founder, Walter Becker , who died in 2017; another features an unintentional acid trip. ( David Gest also makes an appearance.)

“I remember looking to the guys who seem to manage it well — guys who did a little of this and did a little of that but didn’t have a problem like I suspect that I already did,” McDonald said. “Their whole thing was ‘You just got to manage it — you can’t overdo it, man.’” He paused. “And every one of those guys, to a man, is gone.”

Sober since the mid-80s — he said his current vices are “food and sloth” — McDonald is not only still here, but discreetly ubiquitous.

Forget about velvet and silk: The more you read and think and listen, the more his voice seems like a connecting thread running through America’s popular-music tapestry that, if pulled, might unravel the whole thing — or at least, leave a significant, unmendable hole.

And yet, he said, “to this day I keep expecting the doors to fly open and the impostor police to come and grab me and take me out.”
