Reunited in 2001 by co-founders Frederick Williams and Antonio Johnson, the group FOCUS is by no means a stranger to the entertainment world. Compared to groups the likes of Jodeci, Az Yet, New Edition, Take 6 and Silk, this up-and-coming sensation is said to be the “Boyz to Men of the New Millennium.” The smooth, melodic, accappella sounds of FOCUS are a synthesis of gospel, jazz and R&B. Despite the size and intimidating nature of the music industry, these natives who hail from the west side of Chicago aspire to expand their sound and knowledge far beyond the Windy City. Their sight is set on becoming the next multi-platinum R&B group, with hopes of crossing over and becoming media moguls like other big R&B and Hip Hop names who venture in the fashion and real estate industries. What we ask is for you to open your mind’s eye, enjoy our harmonious lyrics…and FOCUS!
Focus has performed and appeared at many special and private functions throughout the metro Chicagoland area such as WGCI 107.5 Home Jam * The Touch of the Past with V103's Jim Raggs * various community cable channels in and out of the state of Illinois * Placed 4th out of 60 on BET industry Talent Search * Placed 2nd at WILD 99.7 in Appleton, Wisconsin * NYC Fame * The Amateur Night in Harlem in New York * Two time Winners of the Gillespie Idol commercial spot with daily rotation *opened for the Ying Yang Twins in Yazoo, Mississippi, just to name a few............
Focus gives credit to God, their fans and the many individuals that have helped them with many of the music projects thus far in their career. They have the heart and desire to make music their professional careers and every group member depends on the other and realizes the group as a whole makes up the team known as FOCUS.
