Album Review: Soul Tempo – Doing Our Father’s Business
By Peggy Oliver

In
the 1996 movie The Preacher’s Wife, Soul Tempo performed on screen with
an acappella reading of the Swan Silvertones, “The Lord’s Prayer.” It
is hard to top for any modern quartet to touch one of gospel music
legends who were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2002. But
experiencing groups like Soul Tempo who cover a whole lot of ground in a
classy manner from the traditional to hip-hop is quite extraordinary
this day and age. Formed in 1985, brothers Kevin and Phillip Mitchell
and their childhood friends Jeremiah Brunson and Anthony Burnett are
‘sort of latecomers’ to the gospel industry who won the 2009 McDonald’s
Gospel Fest. They also sung for the Democratic Debate on PBS moderated
by Tavis Smiley and have inspired audiences on several stages, including
the Apollo Theater. To continue, please click “MORE”!
