"But now bring me a Minstrel. And when the Minstrel played, the power of the LORD came upon him."
2 Kings 3:15
Shelton F. Wilson musical beginnings as a musician started at the tender age of four beating on pots and pans only to become "The Minstrel" as he is known today.
His musical beginnings, teachings and mentoring stages began during his fellowship years at Holy Tabernacle Church under the pastorate of the late Bishop Joe L. Smith, where he began playing the drums only to elevate to keyboard and organ. With his ability to master the drums skillfully led him to become one of the most sought after drummers, which led him to travel the country at an early age with the renowned Salvation Corporation Choir. Shelton saw fit that there was no more to accomplish with the drums soon there after with the blessings and encouragement of the late Bishop Smith, Shelton started to focus on the organ and piano.
With his ability during the stages of mastering the organ and piano, he soon there after studied and sat under the tutelage of both Professor Don Garner and Professor Dennis Montgomery III who taught him with discipline, ministered to his musical spirit to play with the anointing and gift that God has instilled in him, but they also became his mentors and spiritual uncle and brother, but most of all close friends. In which he is indebted to them for their love and support.
During his years as a musician, Shelton has endured pain, hardships, disappoints and hurts. Although he knew the Lord from his childhood, he really did not know at the time of his calling God has placed on his life. He went after his "purpose" as a Minstrel not knowing it was there all the time. Shelton was discarded as a musician, talked about as a person and treated as less than a man, but also admitting to his own faults, mistakes and failures. He has been through many trials and tribulations, which led him to his weakest moment in life, with nowhere to go and no place to turn. But through it all Shelton never gave up on God and God never gave up on him. Not being able to take the pressures in the east his home state of Massachusetts, Shelton went to the west to Nevada for solitude and to run away from the pain and the hurt of being a "church" musician. But his decision to move to the west was only part of his process of changing him from a musician to The Minstrel.
After a period of time Shelton obeyed God and made the decision of going back home to Massachusetts where his anointing and gift was birthed. The Minstrel Shelton F. Wilson has accomplished much in a short amount of time. God has blessed him highly and richly in all aspects of his life. God has re-opened and opened many doors that was previously shut, has a gained closer relationship with his family and to those who are close to him, but most of all has gained a closer intimate relationship with God.
Currently The Minstrel is a member of G.M.W.A., co-founded Chill Will Anointed Music, ministering in music at Greater Anointing Harvest Church in Dorchester Mass and His debut CD album called "Its Me Volume I" was released in August 2004.
The Minstrel still travels the country conducting seminars, workshops, concerts and is well in demand by various well-known artists, denominations, and ministers of the gospel for their revivals and regular church services.
Born in Boston, Mass "The Minstrel" is the younger of two children born to Bishop F.J. and Pastor Ruth E. Wilson and is the father of Brianna and Shelton, II, but most of all he credits his "push" and shares his music ministry with the love of his life and partner, most of all his better half Shandolyn.
From the Minstrel
"As a musician many have discarded me, however that did not stop me from doing what I do best and that is to play to the Glory of God. My strong faith, determination, "push" and believing that all things are possible through Christ who has given and continues to give me the strength to endure the process, God has blessed me in all aspects in music and continues to bless as I reach new dimensions by going through the doors of opportunity God has ordained to help share the good news of the gospel through music"
