This high energy, inspirational, contemporary gospel group has been together since November 2012. They find delight in singing praises to the Lord. Their material is original and their sound is unique with blends of jazz, blues, pop, R & B, and soul.
“Our goal is to make music that can appeal to everyone in order to lead non-believers into the Body of Christ”. This desire is evident on their CD and in their live performances. Whether they are playing a jazzy piece such as their song “Heaven”, or an up-tempo number like their title track, “It’s a Beautiful Day” Spirit & Truth delivers an uplifting performance.
Part of the success of the group is their mutual respect of the Lord and of one another. All members understand that everyone plays an important role in the success of a song and glorifying the Lord is the ultimate goal. With their musically diverse backgrounds, and tastes, adding to the creative mix, each song emerges unique…but definitely delivering Spirit & Truth.
Most recently Spirit & Truth has been nominated for "Best Indie Gospel Artist of the Year" at the SCM Awards. The best in underground music recognition.
Spirit & Truth can be booked to perform at private parties, churches, picnics and other venues. In August they performed at a charity event sponsored by the A. Philip Randolph Institute‘s scholarship committee and at the Amnesty and Deliverance Festival, hosted by Joe Ayers, where they sang their title track and other songs from their debut CD, “It’s a Beautiful Day”. The audience gave a positive response.
They have been working all year to produce their CD and they keep busy with stringent rehearsals and recording sessions. The CD was released on October 3, 2013 and is available from their website www.artistecard.com/spiritandtruth. The CD “It’s a Beautiful Day”, is sure to pleasantly delight you.
