“I Come to Praise Him”

I haven’t heard gospel zydeco since the ensemble on Bishop Paul S. Morton’s Still Standing (Light/Tehillah 2006) turned “We Made It” into a post-Katrina celebration.
On “I Come to Praise Him,” the members of Houston-based VIZHION get their own praise party started by collaborating with J Paul Jr. and the Zydeco Nubreeds, who add that characteristically bouncy accordion and swamp beat to the quartet performance.

Quartet gospel AND zydeco, two of my favorite sounds combined? I’ve got to hear this! I’m also noticing more Houston artists coming up on your page, nice touch!
Thank you, JM! Houston is making it happen, no doubt!
