Album Notes

BIOGRAPHY


Brothers In Christ are "Spreading The Message" of the good news of Jesus Christ via their follow up CD to their 2001 debut release, "From The Heart". The group's rave responses to their live performance and CD listening audiences have played a role in the birth of this release. However, it is their strengthened commitment to Christ and discipleship that is the driving force behind "Spreading The Message"!

Produced by Brothers In Christ Ministry (BIC) and Co-Produced by Ray Braswell, Jr., "Spreading The Message" is comprised of predominantly self penned "praise" songs and newly arranged traditional "praise" anthems. The CD flows like a prayer meeting; opening up with BIC penned "It's Time to Come Together", stating our condition and our need for prayer. It follows with songs of adoration via a medley of "We Worship Him", "What A Mighty God We Serve", "Blessed Assurance" and songs of testimony i.e., "He's Right On Time". It closes with another traditional medley inclusive of "There Is Power In The Blood", witnessing to and welcoming new believers! "We can't help but walk by faith and praise him," says BIC. "We have all faced challenges, confusion and uncertainty since our debut release of early 2001, and so has our audience. We were compelled to spread the message that God is still on the throne and he is worthy to be praised"!

Ray Braswell Jr., keyboardist, writer, arranger, vocalist & producer for Keith "Wonder Boy" Johnson & The Spiritual Voices returns as Co-Producer after his succession of hits "Live & Alive" (2000),"Tribute to the Legendary Quartets" (2002), & "Send A Revival" (2003), all released by World Wide Records. Both his versatility as a musician and traditional quartet background are a compliment to the group's sound. He brings to the group his vast road experience as a touring gospel musician; hence, "keeping it real" with the worshippers around the globe! Still maintaining their traditional quartet foundation with a contemporary flair, this sophomore release stretches out on a few arrangements; thus, appealing to a broader audience i.e. the driving up-tempo "I Want To Be Blessed and the Caribbean tinged rhythm of "Made My Life Complete". BIC says "this was influenced by our enhanced live performance responses of believers of various denominations, race & cultures since 9/11.

Audiences are still responding favorably to "From The Heart". It received NY airplay from 98.7Kiss FM's Sunday morning gospel show (CD cut -"Daily I Ask"), maintained the #1 spot on WTHE 1520 AM for six straight weeks & Top 10 for 10 weeks (CD cut - "That's Why We Praise Him"). BIC continues to spread the message of good news at various churches, restaurants, halls, organization & community events throughout the tri-state area.
