“Get Off the Pew”

Outreach 24/7 sounds like a new group of superheroes. Based on their single, “Get Off the Pew,” they might as well be.
On “Get Off the Pew,” the mixed vocal group from Washington, CD tells stories of troubled souls at a crossroads (e.g., a teenaged father, an alcoholic). They order their fellow saved to not just sit there, but “get off the pew” and help them help these troubled souls. Amen to that!
The neo-soul anthem (the group calls their style “Gospel Groove”) reminds me of Arrested Development during its awesome 3 Years, 5 Months & 2 Days in the Life Of… years.
