"A huge leap forward for Swedish Gospel!"

Java Gospel is big a gospel choir from Gothenburg with a fresh and young sound. Their new CD "In good company" is a CD with a lot of variation and a wonderful gospel CD with the majority of the songs written by Ulf Nomark, known for his earlier engagement in Solid Gospel. The lyrics are impressive and reflect the comfort and hope for anyone relying on God. The songs that stays in my mind are "Stop" and "We've all got the same right". I must applaud the vocalists and the musicians. The sound is really tight and it really grooves! Java Gospel is contributing with ground breaking songs written by Swedish songwriters influenced by the american gospel tradition. This is a choir that I'd love to hear more from in the future! - Sändaren - review of
