In 1991, Elwood Jones and his wife Betty founded Urban Street Level. Sherrie Jones joined USL in 1997. The name Urban Street Level was chosen to capture the essence of the ministry. USL takes the gospel to the streets of rural, urban and suburban areas throughout the country. Elwood's sincere heart for seeking and leading lost young people to Christ has led his desire to form the music ministry in a way that would make the gospel acceptable and received by youth and young adults in urban communities across the country. He was determined that a music ministry which utilizes a blend of hip-hop and R&B sounds, which could bridge a cross cultural gap, would be the most effective way to accomplish his goal. USL inspires people of all ages in praise and worship.

Urban Street Level has ministered in music with artists, such as: Angelo & Veronica, Bob Carlisle, Bruce Carroll, Clear, Cross Movement, Darryl Coley, Dave Parker, DII, DOC, Fred Hammond, Gritz, John P. Kee, Kelly Williams, Marvin Sapp, Mike E., Nancy Jackson, Newsboys, Nujoi, Salvador, Shades of Blue, Submission Band, Sup-The Chemist, Tammy Trent, Tommy Walker, Troy Johnson, and many others.

Urban Street Level has toured over 50 cities in the United States and their music can be heard across the country.

Elwood and his wife Betty presently reside in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. They have been ministering together in the music ministry for over 15 years. Elwood is the Director of Music at Zion Church, located in Largo, Maryland, under the leadership of Keith A. Battle, Senior Pastor. Betty is the Praise and Worship Leader and the Design Coordinator at Zion Church.

    I am never disappointed with Urban Street Level. This is another unequivocal success. LIVE 2 crosses boundaries and will be effective in the streets, and all throughout the Church. It's a tremendous variety and fusion of music styles and genres. It's a classic. Youth and adults will want to both worship and jam! This music is an excellent representation of Christ. With, integrity, skill and flavor, it honors and makes Him attractive!

  • Nothing else compares
    author: I.Weaver

    USL live 2 provides enough musical energy and diversity to leave one’s seat and move one’s feet. The bass driven arrangements are super fresh and set a new standard of musical excellence for others to follow. Rich and sultry vocal talent brings the message in song to a personal level. Infectious joy permeates the project. Bring it all together, and USL live 2 is a leading edge tour-de-force in urban worship music. Don’t just sit there, order it now.

  • So many styles, but one true message throughout!
    author: Cynthia Sirk

    Very soulful, very eclectic, very effective. I like the words of encouragement between songs, Betty's voice is soothing and full of truth. This CD will reach hearts because of its variety and ability to draw you into worship--you can't help but move to the beat!

  • Awesone CD!
    author: Mike Curtis

    This CD gets more rotation in my changer than any other. I listen to at least some of it every single day. There is no one style on here to get bored with. It is tremendously anointed and a valuable addition to my CD collection...which is quite extensive. I have recommended this CD to everyone I know. It is only to bad that there isn't a DVD to accompany it. I look forward to more!

  • If you love God.....

  • CD is Outstanding
    author: Earl Gavette--Staford, VA

    This CD is OUTSTANDING!!! The wife and I listen to it every time we get a chance.

  • USL has done it again
    author: Christopher Thomas

    You would think it would be hard to top "LIVE 1", but the best has gotten better. USL has done it again times two... If you've enjoyed "LIVE 1", you will absolutely fall in love with "LIVE 2" another very annointed and creative mix of some Christian music classics, including awesome remixes of "Lord I Lift Your Name", "Open The Eyes Of My Heart", "I Could Sing Of Your Love" and more... Anyone who has been a fan of diverse styles of Christian music for years, will enjoy the funky, energetic live gospel sounds of "Live 2". A must get for any music collection.
