GMA Spotlight Instrumental winner and Vibe Award Nominee, Isaac Agyeman has established himself as an outstanding musician. As a Canadian musician, he is most readily known for his alto saxophone solos grooving and sliding through a variety of musical genres. Steeped in gospel, jazz and classical music as a youth, Isaac cultivated his foundational training. Performing in Canada's regional Festival of Ministry, he took the highest honors as a solo saxophone performer. He then toured across Canada with the Jubilance Singers and Orchestra. Music scholarships to Greenville College in Greenville, IL and later North Central University (NCU) of Minneapolis have deepened his education and expanded his abilities to include songwriting and arranging.

He has performed with the likes of jazz musicians Bobby Peterson and Ben Harris, contemporary Christian artist, Tammy Trent, Jon and Lori Dortono and Hmong pop star Lee Her.

Isaac's abilities have also gotten him performances with members of Prince's band, including world class drummer John Blackwell, bassist Larry Gram, percussionist Kirk Johnson, drummer Michael Bland and keyboardist Tommy Barbarella. Isaac has also performed with Kip Blackshire and Chance Howard. In 2003, Isaac was invited to perform at Prince's studio (Paisley Park) where he sat in with Conversation Piece, an established jazz group in Minneapolis.

Some of Isaac's solo performances have included the Gospel Music Workshop of America's 34 national conference and a successful headlining concert at the F. J. Lindquist Auditorium in Minneapolis. Isaac is also the 2003 GMA (Gospel Music Association) Seminar in the Rockies' Spotlight Instrumental winner. Not only has Isaac received a major prize package which includes recording time in a Nashville studio, but Isaac Opened for Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith.
