Multi-Talented singer, songwriter, producer, and actor; Ricky Dillard, is a "Ball of Fire for God" that has scorched an indelible mark of music. With his endless energy and his unyielding command of music, Dillard has reached a humble plateau of success. Grammy nominee, motion picture star, music chart topper, and prime time television star, God just continues to plate jewels in this young mans crown.

A third prodigy, his career took an early ascension with recognition as an acclaimed choir director, vocal coach, and minister of music. Reverend Milton Brunson quickly honed and fine tuned Ricky's talents as a member of the 'Thompson Community Singers'. He would go on to release solo projects and form 'The New Generation Chorale'. It was through this Chorale that Ricky would get God's just reward for his faithfulness to the lord. The Chorale's first project: 'The Promise', garnered a Grammy nomination and the second project, 'A Holy  Ghost Takeover', earned the most coveted 'Stellar Award' for Album of the Year. Ricky would steadfast lead New Generation through such projects as PBS's Going Home to Gospel with Patti Labelle, NBC's Comic Relief Salutes Michael Jordan, ABC's Paula Poundstone Show, the Annual Stellar Awards, BET's Bobby Jones Gospel, and The 'Grammy Nominated' and Stellar Award Winning project with the 'Queen' of Gospel Albertina Walker.

Dillard's next medium of conquest was motion pictures, with a starring role in the Paramount Pictures "Leap of Faith". He had the honor of starring in a role created just for him by the movie writer. One writer said, "We saw the 'Going Home Gospel' special and their was Ricky just about to launch off the choir's stand. We wanted the energy and visual effects that Dillard had".

This would catapult Dillard to many uplifting and exhilarating national appearances, including the "Arsenio Hall Show". Walt Disney Production would later tall upon Dillard to serve as choir consultant for their movie 'Sister Act II".

1996 greeted Ricky Dillard and New G with their fourth live recording entitled "Worked It Out", due to release in October. Full of the energy and spirit filled songs that they are known for, "Worked It Out" delivers the message in a way that is sure to continue their ground swell of popularity. With the expertise of the award winning co producer Donald Lawrence and a new record company partnership with Crystal Rose and Star Song, Ricky Dillard and New G are experiencing God guidance and favor with much more on the horizon.
