McCrary Sisters Release ‘Let’s Go’ on March 10
Gospel soul sisters The McCrary Sisters will be releasing their new album entitled Let's Go on March 10. The album features 16 new songs produced by Buddy Miller (Emmylou Harris, Robert Plant & Patty Griffin). "There's something in them that becomes a whole 'nother thing besides four people singing together, and it's because they're sisters," Miller says. "They know what to do, and they're genius. There's not another word for it."
Possessing a unique familial musical history of their own as daughters of longtime Fairfield Four tenor Rev. Samuel McCrary, The McCrary Sisters - Alfreda, Ann, Deborah and Regina - each bring a unique energy and virtuosity to the group, not to mention varied experiences within the worlds of pop, rock, R&B and gospel music.
"That is the essence of what makes music great, it's the essence of what makes singing great, and we really hear it in artists like the McCrary Sisters," says NPR music correspondent Ann Powers.
That meshing of voices with faith and with family creates dynamic new music, steeped in the tradition of church and contemporary music. Songs like "That's Enough," "I Am Free," "Walk In The Light," "I'd Rather Have Jesus" and the title track all showcase the sisters' talents in ways where it's easy to recognize they'd be called on for background vocals for artists such as The Black Keys, Martina McBride, Eric Church, Jonny Lang, Robert Randolph, The Winans, Donnie McClurkin, Mike Farris and so many more.
"The McCrary Sisters have a way of bringing the traditions of gospel into another format that's unique," says Jed Hilly, executive director of the American Music Association, whose 2014 festival featured a PBS taping titled "Rock My Soul" that showcased both The McCrary Sisters and The Fairfield Four, and which can be seen on PBS stations nationally this spring during the network's pledge drive season.
