Part of
R&B Festival at MetroTech 2015
“It was all joyful praise, brilliantly timed with one crescendo after another. If they hadn’t been playing in Webster Hall’s basement, they might have torn off the roof.”
—The New York Times
Like everything else, even the gospel is bigger in Texas. The 11-member family collective—comprising five sisters, two brothers, and their father—has been unleashing jubilant songs of praise on churches and festivals alike for over two decades. With a hip-shaking sound that draws from vintage soul and R&B, the group comes to MetroTech on the heels of their knockout performance at January’s Globalfest at Webster Hall, which propelled them onto the global scene.
