Maverick City Music Countersues Co-Founder for $10M Over Competing Worship Choir

Maverick City Music, a Grammy-winning group, has countersued its co-founder Tony Brown for $10 million over a competing worship choir. The lawsuit alleges that Brown's new choir, Tribl Records, is attempting to poach Maverick City Music's talent and undermine their success.

The group, which has been a major force in contemporary Christian music, has been locked in a legal battle with Brown since October 2025. The lawsuit claims that Brown's actions are a breach of contract and a violation of Maverick City Music's intellectual property rights.

Maverick City Music has been a dominant force in the Christian music scene, with hits like 'Jireh' and 'Promised Land'. The group's music has been praised for its blend of traditional and modern styles, and they have won numerous awards for their work.

The lawsuit is the latest development in a long-standing feud between Maverick City Music and Brown. The group has accused Brown of attempting to sabotage their success and undermine their reputation.

The case is ongoing, with both sides presenting their arguments in court. Maverick City Music is seeking $10 million in damages, as well as a court order to prevent Brown from further interfering with their business.
