Blind Boys of Alabama returned to play City Winery New York on September 17, following the release of this latest album Echoes Of The South, which was released on August 25.
The Blind Boys of Alabama have faced a great deal of struggles and success in the music industry than most musicians will in their lifetimes. Their eight decades of experience and pure talent has led them from street performances in the Jim Crow South all the way to being the soundtrack of the Civil Rights Movement, giving them the chance to perform for three different United States Presidents and landing them as legends in the Gospel Music Hall of Fame.
This dedication and persistence to one another and to their love of music is epitomized in their newest single, as they will not only “work” but “sing” until their days are done. There is no stopping a powerhouse group like Blind Boys of Alabama, as they rely on one another and a shared agreement that “as long as everybody gives all that they have to give and we sing songs that touch the heart, we’ll live on forever.”
