Ron Carroll, The Minister of Sound, is definitely one of the favorite ministers in the church of House. Just two years after starting off his career in the early 1980s spinning at his own dance club, "The Bangin' Enterprize" on the South Side of Chicago, Ron Carroll was opening for Lil' Louis, Mike Dunn, and the legendary Ron Hardy. From his beginnings in House music, he wanted to use his experience singing in the church choir and sing Gospel lyrics over House tracks. In 1994, Ron crossed paths with his musical mentor, Little Louie Vega. This working friendship gave him the chance to write a Billboard #1 Dance Hit "I Get Lifted" for Barbara Tucker.
