I heard that the first single from contemporary quartet The Soul Seekers would feature Pastor Marvin Winans, and I knew it would be incredible on that basis alone.

The track, “It’s All God,” does not disappoint.  It features a simple melody, tight harmonies, great instrumentation, and guest vocals from the incomparable Marvin L. Winans.

For your listening pleasure, I’ve added the track to the PunditPlayer.  Click here to take a listen!

In February, I reported that the album, titled SS2, would be in stores on May 4th, but I think it might have been pushed back a lil’ bit.  Once I hear, I’ll let ya know.

In the meantime, lemme know what you think!!!

Word has it that we’ll soon be getting new music from The Soul Seekers, the most modern, yet true-to-tradition, quartet group in the gospel game. 

The Soul Seekers is a group/band comprised of Warryn Campbell, Teddy Campbell, John “Jubu” Smith, Eric Seats, Charlie Bereal, Nisan Stewart, Gerald Haddon, and Craig Brockman.

The untitled album, the group’s second, will be available on May 4, 2010.

Shout-out to Jeremy for the heads-up on this and for cracking me up by calling these dudes “the Voltron of Gospel Music.”  I think you’re right! LOL

Word has it that American Idol is THE SPOT for gospel folks to land in their off-season.  No, not as contestants… in the band.

Onitsha, who is currently working on her sophomore gospel album as a follow-up to her acclaimed debut Church Girl, is a background vocalist on the show each week.

AAAAAND, Teddy Campbell has long been a drummer for the American Idol band.  In case you didn’t know, he’s also the lead singer of the Stellar Award-winning gospel quartet group, Soul Seekers, and the husband of Mary Mary’s Tina Campbell.

*packing my bags to go and git me a gig*

I’m off to Hollywood!
