The Hallelujah Singers, a vocal group from Beaufort, SC was founded 10 years ago by Marlena Smalls in an effort to preserve seek the Gullah heritage through music. Rooted in West African traditions and language, and brought by the slaves to the Sea Islands of South Carolina and Georgia, the Gullah language is a Creole blend of West African and European dialects, developed in the isolated plantations of the coastal South.

Among the Hallelujah Singer’s collection are traditional plantation songs dating back to the 1600s. The group consists of five singers and two musicians, playing strings and conga drums.

The Hallelujah Singers have performed in concert worldwide, and have appeared in television documentaries and the motion picture Forrest Gump. They have also performed for the United States Congress, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and South Carolina legislators.

We met the property owners, and like everyone on the island they are so warm and friendly. Hilton Head island is a perfect example of South Carolinas motto “Smiling Faces, Beautiful Places” Thank you for sharing this amazing and magical place with me and my family. We all look forward to returning as soon as possible.”
