The Brown Sisters have been singing together for over 20 years. Their recent release has launched them onto the national stage.  Therefore, for the month of August, we review their CD Live In Chicago.

If you were putting together a female gospel group from today’s singers, you would probably call upon Evelyn Turrentine-Agee, Ronica Bowers, Dorothy Norwood, Debra Snipes, and Leomia Boyd.  These ladies are awesome vocalists.  Attend their concerts and you know, they bring a lot of energy to the stage.  They sing songs that deliver messages that are needed in this world today.  They also are exceptional songwriters. What a group that would be. Or, you could just might pick up the CD Live In Chicago and realize that a group with all of that vocal talent, finesse, musical background and ability already exist in The Brown Sisters.  The sisters are Vanessa C. Dukes, Phyllis D. Brown, Lavette Sims, Adrienne Brown and Andrea M. Brown.

From the first song on their CD to the end, you are left with the undeniable fact that The Brown Sisters can sing.  They are musicians, songwriters and great vocalists.  And, the Sisters know how to deliver a song.  With this project they deliver songs for a world that need to hear the Word.

The new CD gives you some contemporary, some Praise and Worship, and some traditional.  Combine together you get a CD that is sure to minister to you.  The songs on this project are “Ain't Nothin' Like This,” “Ain't Nothin Like This (Reprise),” “Awesome God,” “King of Glory,” “Abide,” “Abide (Reprise),” “He's Coming Back,” “Hold On,” “Sacrifice of Praise,” “Sing Unto the Lord, “Perfect Will,” “You Reign Lord,” and “You Reign Lord (Testimony).”

If we had to mention songs that really stand out, the first would be “Awesome God.”  The message convey by this song is nothing short of great.  This ballad may very well become the group’s signature song.  This Praise and Worship song showcases the ladies’ ability to deliver a soul stirring reminder that God is An Awesome God.  The second song would be the upbeat tempo “Hold On.”  This is one of those songs that will certainly get the audience involved in the concert with some toe tapping and hand clapping.  Listen to the runs and riffs in this song.  The ladies masterfully encourage you to “Hold On” as you get your praise on.

The third song we will emphasize is “You Reign Lord.”  Listen to the intensity in the voices of the sisters. The emotions they convey during this song intensifies as the song reaches its apex. Then, as soon as your about to come back down, the testimony kicks in. This just happened to be the last song on the project. What a fitting end to a great recording.
 

Overall, this new release from The Brown Sisters is a very good recording.  We give The Brown Sisters’ Live In Chicago a solid 8.5 out of 10.  To purchase this CD click "here."  Click on the title to hear a clip from “Hold On.”
