We just received the new CD Introducing The Anointed Brothers of Flint, Michigan. What an outstanding project. There are twelve songs on the project. There are many original songs on this the group’s freshman project. And, the Public Domain songs on the project certainly have original arrangements. This may be the group’s first CD, but they are certainly not neophytes to the music industry. They are polished outstanding singers. And, they know how to deliver a message that ministers to the listener.

The Anointed Brothers have been together for nine (9) years. However, the members have been involved in gospel music for many years before forming The Anointed Brothers.

Members of the group are Jeffery (Jay) Williams, Bobby Plair, Marc Nunn, and Robert Young, Jr. Williams was a member of The Bright Stars and The Sheperds of Flint, Michigan. Plair was also a member of The Sheperds. Nunn was a member of The Flint Cavaliers. The members are also songwriters, producers and musicians.

With twelve (12) songs on the project, there is something for everyone. From the opening chords of “It Could Have Been Me” to the final chord of “I Need Thee,” the Brothers deliver extraordinary vocals, inspiring messages, and just great gospel music.

The Joy Boyz of Nashville, Tennessee, have been signed to 4 Winds Record Label. Congratulations to some of the hardest working guys in gospel music. If they bring the energy they normally display on stage to the Memorial Day Concert recording, gospel music fans will be presented with a great CD and DVD.

MALACO will be taping The Joy Boyz, The Jackson Sisters and The Sensational Nightingales at a Memorial Day Concert in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, on May 31, 2010. Each of the groups will take part in the live recording. The groups are scheduled to record new songs. However, one can also expect The Sensational Nightingales to do some of their chart topping songs from previous projects – attendees will probably demand no less.

It has been sometime since we have heard from The Jackson Sisters. These ladies always show up to have an exciting praise and worship service. They will match (and often exceed) any group’s enthusiasm and energy on stage.

The CD and DVD from this historic Memorial Day recording should be available later this year. Look for this project to become another “must have” for quartet gospel music fans.

The concert flyer can be seen on the front page of Gloryland Gospel.

D.D.M. Recording Studio in Winston Salem, North Carolina, recently released the new CD by David Martin & The New Gospel Stylistics. The project is titled Trust In Jesus.

The name of the group suggests that at one time there was a group called The Gospel Stylistics. That group was around during the mid seventies through the eighties. Some of the members of the original group were Daniel Prigen, David Marin, Clyde Jefferson, John Gore, Eugene Leach, Craig Caesar, Howard Patterson and Bernard Ingram. The only surviving member is David Martin.

About two (2) years ago, Mr. Martin decided to bring the sound and style of The Gospel Stylistics to a new generation of gospel music fans. Now they have released a new CD packed with all new material.

Rhythm and blues (or soul music) fans from the 70’s may remember the group The Stylistics. Remember their smooth rhythms? Remember their falsetto lead singer? Remember their unique arrangements? Well, if you do, then transfer all of that to gospel music and attach the name David Martin & The New Gospel Stylistics. The group has found a way to incorporate the secular musical style of the 70’s into good gospel quartet music.

Listen to songs from the CD during Gloryland Gospel Radio’s Quartet Gospel Mix on May 29, 2010.
