Performing since the age of six, McClave was discovered by record producer Rodney Jerkins.
McClave was then chosen by Antonina Armato and Tim James to be a featured vocalist for the pop group 3Gs.
In early 2004, Noble, Martinez and Duddy joined the band to fully form Hope 7.
The band released their self-titled album, Hope 7, on March 15, 2005 with Trauma Records.
