Gospel Group Alvin Campbell & Total Praise Encourages Saints To “Believe”
With Their New Single
Lead
Single Precedes November 18th Release Of CD, Believe
(Washington, DC) – Contemporary Gospel Artist Alvin Campbell and his
vocally-gifted ensemble, Total Praise, are favorites in their home base of
Washington, DC. However, their first
single, “Forever Worship You”, caught the attention of the entire Gospel music
community with a #22 charting on iTunes Christian & Gospel chart. Now the
group follows up the impressive debut with a second single, “Believe”. Penned
by the group’s leader, the track is Gospel music at its finest. “Believe” is
currently available on iTunes, Amazon,
Google Play and other digital outlets. The full
album, Believe, is scheduled for
release on November 18th.
“Believe” was penned by
Campbell and he feels it’s his most personal record to date. “I wrote the song
at a time when I pondered continuing music ministry,” shares Alvin. “I had gone
through a lot of disappointment and stepped away from ministry for a while. I
went back to school for music and sort of put music ministry to the side for a
minute. But one day I was in my room and the song, “Believe” came to me. It was
God was telling me that He wanted me to believe again. Now I am sharing that
same message with others.”
The song is Gospel music
at its finest. The ballad is beautifully executed and features the unmatched
vocal talents of his group, Total Praise. Music lovers will appreciate the
unique and exceptional songwriting skills of Alvin Campbell. It’s one of many
moving tracks on the forthcoming project. Songs like “Just For Me” convey the
group leader’s conviction. Deonte Gray, known for his background vocal work
with top artists and 7 Sons of Soul, takes the lead mic on the powerful track. The
project is produced by Pete Chatmon for HungryBoi Productions and Alvin
Campbell for Kimian Music and mixed by Dave Lindsey of 7 Sons of Soul and Soul
World Entertainment. Lindsey was thrilled about his involvement in the
project. He said, “This new record is
bringing back the sound of the gospel choir! A sound that has been missing for
a while now in gospel music!". Passionate about church music, Campbell was
deliberate in making sure that each song on the project can be sung from church
choir stands.
A graduate of the
University of District of Columbia with a Bachelor’s Degree in Music with a
concentration in Gospel music and the Minister of Music at Little Rock Bibleway
Church in Washington, DC, Campbell’s expertise as a songwriter, choir director
and arranger is second to none. His hand-picked group, Total Praise, deliver
soaring harmonies throughout with breathtaking execution peppering each inspiring
track. Excited about the new project, which drops on November 18th,
Alvin says there is one over-arching theme he wants believers to understand:
there is nothing too hard for God. He says, “I want people to believe God, even
when it’s difficult. For those who have given up on God, I want to encourage
them that now is the time to start believing again.” Connect with Alvin
