Originally calling themselves the A Cappella Circle when they were at the University of Waseda, they changed their name to the Gospellers in 1991 after graduating. They spent the next ten years working towards national recognition, releasing 24 singles and 9 albums during that time. They became the first complete a cappella group to be in the top 3 of the Oricon chart ranking in Japan with their song, "HITORI".
In early 2006, the group made a side-project release, Gosperats, featuring the members in blackface and singing with a jazzier accompaniment Rats & Star's member Masayuki Suzuki, Nobuyoshi Kuwano and Yoshio Sato. Many of the western Gospeller fans were upset about the outrage it caused on some discussion forums, many non-fans felt offended by the blackface the group members had chosen to take on. Fortunately, this project was announced as a side-project and released only one album under its name.
The members of Gospellers are now producers for several Japanese artists, including Tatsuya Ishii and Masayuki Suzuki. (This text has been cited from Wikipedia)

ゴスペラーズ Lyrics
いつも君はその場所で
光を守って立っていた
あたりまえのように柔らかな笑顔で
痛みの雫も気付かないまま
見つめていた
背中ごし覗かせた頬が揺らめいて
月のように両手に光を受け止めて
どんな時も君を照らしてる
そして僕はこの場所で
光を守って立っている
強さを優しさの隣に従えて
何も怖くないよ
見上げればほら見つめている
明かりがそっと
その胸の中に届くまで
月のように両手に光を受け止めて
どこにいても僕を照らすから
信じてる 姿を変えても迷わない
同じ空 二人を感じてる
光が守ってくれるから
誰より遠く離れても
光を守って立っていた
あたりまえのように柔らかな笑顔で
痛みの雫も気付かないまま
見つめていた
背中ごし覗かせた頬が揺らめいて
月のように両手に光を受け止めて
どんな時も君を照らしてる
そして僕はこの場所で
強さを優しさの隣に従えて
何も怖くないよ
見上げればほら見つめている
明かりがそっと
その胸の中に届くまで
月のように両手に光を受け止めて
どこにいても僕を照らすから
信じてる 姿を変えても迷わない
同じ空 二人を感じてる
光が守ってくれるから
誰より遠く離れても
