The Grace Thrillers has attained international recognition, and has performed in countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and throut the Caribbean. While performing in North Carolina in the USA, the group was selected to appear on the famous “Bobby Jones Gospel” on BET, where their outstanding performance made an indelible impact on the audience.

The group has an impressive line-up of achievements:

1986 The Rainbow Production Award for being the most consistent gospel group and for the best gospel album. The Tibby's Auto Supplies Award for Spiritual Ministry through Music and Song.

The Grace Thrillers has performed with some of gospel music's elite, including the Hawkins Family, the Commissions, the Richard Smallwood Singers, Candi Staton, Shirley Caesar, Jesse Dixon and the Williams Brothers.

Today, the Grace Thrillers is as vibrant and popular, despite numerous changes in personnel. As the new album title suggests, today heralds “A New Dawning” in the history of this dynamic group. Its current membership, including CEO and founder Noel Willis, consists of: Latoya Hall, Noel Willis, Jr.Alrick O' Connor, Mary Lewis, Shalli Burchell, Natalie Foster and Larry Snow (overseas member).

This new complement was assembled over a very short period of time, and, five months later, “A New Dawning” arrived, with fifteen tracks.
