The Sojourners - Sing And Never Get Tired

"We're living in trying times. We can split the atom, clone DNA and send images and ideas across the world at the speed of light, but we still haven't learned to live together and hear the cries of our brothers and sisters when they need us the most. Doctors are working hard to cure AIDS and cancer, but no matter how far science advances, there are some things it will never be able to explain. Why do we suffer? How come we still treat each other so bad? 
 
No. Science will never mend a broken heart or help us transform despair into hope. Sometimes, faith is the only thing that can carry us from darkness to light, and often music is what illuminates us on that journey.
It's during those times that you want to call on The Sojourners

The celebrated Canadian gospel trio's third album, Sing and Never Get Tired produced by Cousin Harley's Paul Pigat offers new hope for people living in desperate times. With its twelve new songs of faith, struggle and the promise of redemption, the music on Sing And Never Get Tired has the power to soothe the hurts brought by modern life. With a more raw and bluesy edge than they've ever shown us before, singers Marcus Mosely, Will Sanders and newcomer Khari McClelland prove that there's still no kind of music that's more stirring, uplifting and inspiring than gospel music when it's done right. 

Sing and Never Get Tired is a classic gospel album sung in a soulful, rootsy, bluesy style and with a musical backdrop that recalls the best of sixties gospel and rock music. With its earthy vocals, gorgeous harmonies and effortless swing, it is music with the power to heal and transport. It is music created by men who are living in the same world full of struggle and cares that we all have to endure. Sing and Never Get Tired is an album for our times where the rich still get richer and the poor still get poorer. More than anything else, it's an album of hope that reminds us that no matter how many times we get cheated, lied to and knocked down, faith can move mountains and music can give us the strength to get up, wipe ourselves off and try all over again."
