Acappella Company

During its 20 years of existence, Acappella has quietly gone about building a reputation of unparalleled excellence as the premier all-vocal group of the Christian music industry. CCM Update perhaps defined them best as "four-charming, thoughtful artists - these four talented gents are 'the franchise'." Part of this success is due to their compelling on-stage presence in well over 100 concerts a year. They have encountered sell-out crowds all over the United States, Canada, Brazil, Europe, Australia, South Africa, China, Jamaica, as well as the French West Indies.

Millions of people worldwide have been exposed to the unique music of Acappella through national television appearances, and by hearing them as the "voice" of Sony Camcorder commercials. Most Acappella fans, however, know them from albums that have won them the reputation for "superb quality". These albums include We Have Seen His Glory, Rescue, and Acappella Hymns For all the World which Release Magazine praised for "flawless vocals". The publication added further that "this foursome has vocal harmonies down to a science - no, make that an art."

With sales of well over two million albums, Acappella continues to produce outstanding projects. One of their more recent albums, Beyond a Doubt, features the single "If There Were No God" which reached #7 on CCM's national music countdown. A more recent project, Act Of God has been called one of "Acappella's most sophisticated and brilliant release to date."

The Acappella Company began as a dream in the mind of young Keith Lancaster. With an exceptional vocal range, and a unique ability to compose memorable songs, Keith recorded his first album, singing all the parts a cappella, at an early age. Now, as the founder of The Acappella Company, Keith heads up producing the unique and diverse a cappella projects, using the finest all-vocals techniques, technology, and voices available. While still heavily involved with leadership in The Acappella Company, Keith also works as a Worship Minister in the Nashville area. You can find him every weekend before more than 3000 people at the Madison Church Of Christ. He is also director of a small singing group at David Lipscomb University.

Heaven and Earth

War with Myself Dust in the Wind Dime Rhyme Segue One Ragged Angel They are the Roses Emergency You are There Glory and Honor Y.R.A.G Radio Segue Gone Away Take Me There Give Me Jesus

The ministry of Paris, Tennessee's The Acappella Company and Keith Lancaster continues beautifully with the Lancaster-produced "Heaven and Earth" by the four young men who call themselves Acappella. Lancaster's writing talents are everywhere on this CD, "War With Myself," "Emergency," "You Are There," "Glory and Honor," "Gone Away" and "Take Me There" feature words and music by himself or with the group. The group's Gary Evans wrote "Y.R.A.G. Radio Segue," "Dime Rhyme Segue" was written by Matt Nunnally, and Nicolas Dunbar shared writing credits on "War With Myself" and "Take Me There." 12 strong cuts, notable for their contemporary sound and feel, with flavors of hip-hop, jazz, r&b and other genres, with steady, understated guest beatbox by Tony Brown. But the message of Christian faith and belief shines strongly throughout, riding the natural vocal talents and deep feeling of these extraordinary young men. One of the best Contemporary Christian CDs we've ever heard!

Hymns For All The World

All Hail the Power When I Survey/ Old Rugged Cross Softly and Tenderly Rock of Ages Holy, Holy, Holy In the Garden Just As I Am Amazing Grace Blessed Assurance It Is Well

We have come to expect certain things from 4-man Acappella, one of the most talented and prolific Gospel groups. First, that producer Keith Lancaster would pen and arrange at least half the songs, and second, that the deeply felt leads and harmonies would be perfect. "Hymns" surprises in that it's a cover CD, with only arrangements from Mr. Lancaster. That said, the arrangements are incredible! 10 songs" "All Hail The Power," "When I Survey/Old Rugged Cross," "Softly and Tenderly," the driving, rhythmic "Rock of Ages," "Holy, Holy, Holy," a jazzy, joyous "In The Garden," "Just As I Am," the stunning "Amazing Grace," a reggae-flavored "Blessed Assurance" and a personal favorite, " It Is Well." It is as if we are hearing these beautiful songs for the first time. Another triumph for Acappella!

In His Presence

Give Thanks Spiritual Touch Shout Of Praise How Lovely Is Your Dwelling Place There Is No Other Name More Lord We Worship Your Name We Have Seen His Glory Open My Heart Lord, I Want To Be A Servant In Your Presence Now To Him Better Than Life To Him Who Sits On The Throne You Are The God I'm Free

The Acappella Company brings us another Contemporary Christian winner from the 3-part "Praise and Worship" series from Tennessee. Again, the names, pictures and indeed any personal information about the mixed-voice chorus are omitted from the liner notes, placing the focus squarely on the music and the message. The purpose of the CD being to glorify Jesus, not the egos of the singers, we respect this and find it commendable. The songs are largely originals written by Keith Lancaster, Gary Miller and John K. Green.16 upbeat, positive songs, from "Give Thanks," "Shout of Praise" and "More" to "Open My Heart," "Lord, I Want to Be a Servant," the title tune and "I'm Free." There's not really a weak cut here, and the feeling and spirit carry throughout. Recommended!

Hymns For All The Ages

Great Is Thy Faithfulnes Burdens Are Lifted At Calvary The Great Physician Pass Me Not Sweet Hour Of Prayer Victory In Jesus In The Cross We Praise Thee O Lord There Is A Habitation In The Sweet By And By Where He Leads Me I Will Follow There's Not A Friend Like The Lowly Jesus

One of the most prolific and successful ministries, on every level, is that of the Contemporary Christian group Acappella, produced by visionary songwriter and arranger Keith Lancaster. Every one of their many CDs, going back to the 1980s, features immaculate production and excellence in vocals, songwriting and arranging, driven by a deep faith in God and their ministry. "Hymns" is no exception, and features 12 hymns written back as early as 1815 (the words to all are included in the nicely-done liner notes), arranged by Lancaster and members of the group. Dated and dry? Hardlyüjust listen to the driving contemporary rhythms in the arrangements of "Great Is Thy Faithfulness" and "Burdens Are Lifted At Calvary." Beautiful harmonies and timeless words add up to another winner for Acappella!

Sweet Fellowship

Sweet Fellowship Criminal On The Cross For The Lost View That Holy City Well On My Way His Righteousness I Feel Good To Win As Many As Possible Answer My Prayer To Be With You

"Fellowshipping with one another as we're walking in the light" is the opening couplet of the title track and spiritual message of this 1988 recording. The beginning of the album sounds exactly like the 'sound' we've come to expect from Keith Lancaster who wrote all the songs but the three traditional tunes. Sweet harmonies on top of an upbeat rhythm create an enjoyable contemporary spiritual sound that is nicely juxtaposed with the traditional gospel tunes, "For The Lost" and "View That Holy City." Just when we're getting complacent, a driving sampled rhythm provides a feel of the most contemporary rock a cappella. That's "Well On My Way." What a production! The voices of Rodney Britt, Wayburn Dean, Gary Moyers and George Pendergrass integrate so well it seems impossible to imagine any other lineup even when we know change did come.

All That I Need

Love Is The Power Movin' Standing Right In Front of You I Know You Know Jesus Knows Abba Father Ready To Go Begins All That I Need Jesus Is Coming O Wretched Man Praise Be To The Lord

The long-running success story that is the Acappella Company is based upon immaculate production, strong original songwriting, and an unwavering faith in the Creator. Produced by visionary Keith Lancaster, who wrote a portion of the material (the rest written by the group themselves), the four men of Acappella intrigue the ear with harmonies that can be reminiscent of Crosby, Stills and Nash, or classic three-part triad. The uptempo 'Ready To Go' is stirring and jubilant, while 'Begins' has a descending progression and timely modulation that is irresistibly catchy. The percolating bass, insistent refrain, and recitation vocal of the title track, 'All That I Need,' drives the message home. Sonically, the mix is richly articulated and defined, without an excess of gloss.

Set Me Free

Only Truth Set Me Free More Precious Than Gold Not My Will But Thine My Lord And My God Lead Me To Rest Nobody But Jesus Special Kind Of Love Long Way To Go Hush Stand On The Rock Everything We Need

It seems important to this reviewer to follow the contributions of different singers to the legacy of outstanding a cappella music which has eventuated from Keith Lancaster. This recording was released in 1993 and features the voices of Duane Adams, Wayburn Dean, George Pendegrass and Gary Moyers (who is now president of the Ministries). All but two of these inspirational songs were written by Keith who also produced the album. It's a strong, rich, full recording with overdubbing aplenty to create textures which vary from rock ("Only Truth") through R&B ("Lead Me To Rest") into the jazz chord opening of "Special Kind Of Love" and on through the light reggae sound and rhythm of "Long Way To Go." Rhythms and rhymes alike all point the listener toward the Lord. It's a wonderful ministry of song.

Rescue

Listen to Him Rescue John 10 (Introduction to Life) Life Who Is Gonna Tell the Child? Everybody Said (But Nobody Did) It Is Good For Us to Be Here That Could Have Been Me Take It Away That They May All Be One I Have a Friend

No one song more captures the essence of Acappella than Rescue. It is by far the most requested song in concert and tops the group's "most favorite list" as submitted by their fans. If you want to hear where the quartet really started cooking, Rescue is the album for you.

Beyond A Doubt

And My God Will Meet Your Needs Brave New World Do Not Be Afraid God Inhabits Our Praise He Did It Again I'm At Your Mercy I Can Rejoice If There Were No God Tell Me Something I Don't Know When You're There

It's hard to believe! Huh? What? It's hard to believe that the snare and drum on "Do Not Be Afraid" are vocal. But it's sampling! Sampling shmampling. To be unable to dispel the illusion of instruments, even under headphones, is something special! We're talkin' audio trompe l'oeil here folks. By the way, who is singing bass? That's one of the deepest purist bass lines we've ever heard. Beyond a doubt the more things change with Acappella, the more they stay the same - terrific! There are songs which have arrangements so simple that the fine harmony of four voices, without any studio trickery, carry the message and you don't get distracted by the music. There is an addition of jazz chording that expands the possibilities of the group in exciting directions. Acappella just keeps getting better!

In God We Trust

God Has Smiled On Me Hide Me Away, O Lord Don't Be Afraid Guide Us He Gives The Victory To All Let Us Worship He Will Be Raised Up The Lord Reigns Forever In God We Trust I've Got The Joy Of The Lord With All My Heart Worthy Lord You Are There Let Us Approach The Throne In His Strength Jesus Will Fix It

Tennessee-based The Acappella Company is a prolific mixed Contemporary Christian chorus, and "In His Presence" is part of their 3-part "Praise and Worship" series. The size of the group their names or a photo are conspicuously absent from the liner notes, which only have the lyrics to all this original music, written mostly by Keith Lancaster, John K. Green and Gary Miller. We feel that this is purposely done, placing the focus on the music and the message and taking it away from the singers—and we find this authentic and refreshing. That description also applies to the music, all joyous a cappella. 16 feel-good songs, from "God Has Smiled On Me," "Let Us Worship" and "He Will Be Raised Up," to "The Lord Reigns Forever," the title tune and "Jesus Will Fix It." The A Cappella Company has always been one of our favorites, and we especially like this series! Recommended.

Act Of God

He's Gonna Let You Know Get To The Point Act of God House Of Praise And They Praised God Gotta Grow Up Let There Be Love Teaching The Truth In Love Let's Show And Tell Walking That Line

Here we have a 1997 release by the most prolific musical ministry ever. Half of the songs are written by that endless font of musical inspiration, Keith Lancaster. Duane Adams who sang with the quartet is still writing and has a couple of compositions in addition to collaborating with Keith on the slow, profound and satisfying title track, "Act Of God." The other members of the current band have made significant writing and arranging contributions. They are Gary Moyers, Gary Miller, Kevin Schaffer and Steve Reischl. The production is over the top! Multi-tracking and some signal processing yields a complex texture to all the songs whose tempo is definitely rock and the fullness of a large choral group to the slower songs. We believe that our secular a cappella fans should try this recording because, musically, it is a amazing piece of work.

We Have Seen His Glory

Sing To the Glory We Have Seen His Glory Glory In His Name We Will See Jesus How Can I Truly Say? Good Livin' Talk To Jah Angels Long to Look I Understand To Him Who Sits on the Throne

From the Islands, to Africa, and back again, this album covers a wide range of styles. Featuring songs by Keith Lancaster, Duane Adams and George Pendergrass, this is an album of contemporary praise. On this recording Duane Adams, Wayburn Dean, Gary Moyers and George Pendergrass are joined by the A.C.M.S. Chorus. Selections include "Sing to the Glory," "We Will See Jesus," "Good Livin'" and "I Understand."

Live From Paris

I Feel Good Roll Jordan Roll Sweet Fellowship Holy City Everybody Said This Little Light Love is the Power Instrupella Victory in Jesus Hush Peace Be Still Jesus Knows Shut De Do Amazing Grace

A Cappella: Live from Paris. Paris, Tennessee, that is -- home of Acappella Ministries! This dynamic quartet, Gary Evans (he of the foundation-shaking bass), Kevin Schaffer, Steve Maxwell and Barry Wilson, are in their element here. A wildly-cheering and clapping, fingers-to-the-sky audience sings along and urges their boys on. And Acappella gives it all right back: Gospel ("I Feel Good," "Roll Jordan, Roll," "Holy City," "This Little Light of Mine" and "Amazing Grace"), Reggae ("Everybody Said," and "Shut De Do,"), Doo-Wop ("Love Is The Power," "Victory In Jesus," "Hush," and the finger-snapping "Jesus Knows"), Contemporary Christian ("Sweet Fellowship" and "Peace Be Still"), and even a jazzy faux-instrument a cappella gem called "Instrupella." It's all feel-good, Jesus-loving music, and you don't need to bring your French-English dictionary!

Collection

Teaching The Truth In Love Only Truth Special Delivery Rescue Hush Get To The Point Softly And Tenderly If There Were No God My Lord And My God Good Livin' Everybody Said (But Nobody Did) I'm At Your Mercy Let There Be Love Not My Will But Thine Walkin' That Line Well On My Way The Medley

One of the premier groups in Christian/gospel a cappella, "Acapella" has released over three dozen albums, and counting. This CD is a long-awaited "best-of" collection, and an exemplary introduction to their musical message. This gifted amalgamation demonstrates a truly astonishing facility within a number of different songwriting styles: "Get To The Point" has a hook that would be a hit on pop radio, "God is Standing By" has a Caribbean flavor. The production of "It Was the Truth" shows how a simple vocal effect can distinguish a song. "Sing His Praises" again is a textbook example of production and arranging wizardry: the syncopated "keyboard" octaves, the placement of the various voices (panning), and the sixteenth-note bass line create atmosphere, a tension and release. You will love this record.

Classics Long Play

All Rise Awesome God O Happy Day Thy Word Coloring Song Via Dolorosa Do Right Soon and Very Soon Father's Eyes We Are His Hands Lift Him Up Because He Lives When God Ran How Could You Say No Looking Out For #1 Friends We Will Stand In The Name of The Lord

Acappella is certainly not a newcomer to the contemporary Christian world of music. This collection of 18 songs reflects twenty years of hard work and devotion all for the love of music and an 'Awesome God.' With each song you can imagine yourself as a child, or in a different part of the world, by a campfire, or in a cathedral. Jungle Rhythms, chanting, and haunting voices that echo the angels support the strong lead vocals and blend perfectly. The eclectic arranging of 'Classics Long Play' keeps the listener interested and pleasantly entertained throughout. 'Coloring Song', 'Via Dolorosa', 'Thy Word' and 'Friends' are reasons alone to give this CD a spin.

Gospel Long Play

Inspiration Old Time Gospel Stamp of Approval Jesus in the U.S.A. Hold On Giving Me Joy I Know Love We Are One There Is No Excuse Two Hearts Soul Doctor His Grace Is True Let Me Show You Me No More Wasted Years Go Out Quickly Education Old Time Gospel Right Way

Another two-for-one re-release featuring 18 songs. The Acappella Company has created a dynasty, and their recordings are always exceptionally well produced and arranged. When they interpret a gospel tune or spiritual, however, they absolutely shine. The versatility of the stylistic embellishments that they routinely employ is amazing, and it's these nuances – a bar of rhythmic counterpoint here, a half step swoop into a repeating phrase there – that bring such lasting satisfaction. 'Old Time Gospel' is exactly that, while 'Stamp of Approval' is lifted straight from the Philly school of '70's soul; 'There Is No Excuse' is an midtempo raver that is part O'Jays and a little bit urban too. Lots of goodies here.

Spirituals Long Play

Ride The Chariot Joshua Fit Da Battle Nobody Knows Elijah Rock I Want Jesus To Walk With Me Poor Wayfaring Stranger No More Everytime I Feel The Spirit People Get Ready Poor Pilgrim Of Sorrow Everybody Talkin' About Heaven Swing Low Sweet Chariot Spiritual Medley Common Thread Soon Ah Will Be Done Joy In Da MorningWade In The Water Ain't That Good News

A re-release, comprising the Acappella Company's popular "Spirituals" and "Spirituals 2" CD's. With 18 songs in all, both of these CDÇs were best-sellers. Acappella's production ethic, which favors sampling, overdubbing and a bottom-heavy mix, transforms certain arrangements, such as "Joshua Fit Da Battle," giving them an urban air. However, songs such as "Poor Pilgrim of Sorrow" and "Poor Wayfaring Stranger" are considerably more loyal to the original spiritual form, the emotional lead vocal prominently up front, fleshed out with lavish backup harmonies. We find that these performances are some of the most soulful in the Acappella repertoire.

Word of God Long Play

More Precious Than Gold To Him Who Sits On the Throne How Lovely Is Your Dwelling Place Angels Long To Look Into These Things I Delight In the Lord Better Than Life O Wretched Man Covenant Of Love Now to Him One Thing I Ask You Are There Glory In His Name Hard Pressed Hide Me Away, O Lord What Do You Think And My God Will Meet All Your Needs Let Us Then Approach the Throne Walking In the Light Sing To the Glory Praise Be To the Lord And So I Bow Be Strong and Courageous Listen To Him Everything We Need

It is nearly impossible to compile all of the best songs that Keith Lancaster adapted from the scriptures onto 1 CD. That is why 'Word of God' is 2 CD's and is 50 songs Long Play. This is a compilation of both Old and New Testament passages featuring fables, miracles and inspiration that are infinitely inspiring. The arrangements are straightforward, finger snapping and sing along contemporary acappella in close harmony with traces of Gospel and R&B influence. All songs were specially selected from previous A Cappella releases. If you are new to Keith Lancaster and the A Cappella Company, 'Word of God – Long Play' is a great introduction. A Cappella is an internationally renowned and respected group of singers dedicated to spreading God's Word in harmony.

Wedding Long Play

You Are Everything I Will Be Here The Wedding Song Doubly Good to You The Lord's Prayer Wedding March The Colour Of My Love Faithful And True (Contemporary) Faithful And True (Traditional) And I Love You So A Whole New World Oh Perfect Love You Are Everything - track I Will Be Here - track The Wedding Song - track Doubly Good to You - track The Lord's Prayer - track The Colour Of My Love - track And I Love You So - track Oh Perfect Love - track

How perfectly appropriate to review a wedding CD on Valentine's Day! Some songs will be fresh to the ears while others have been around wedding chapels for years. 'You Are Everything' is a contemporary song that is similar to a James Taylor song in both title and melody. The allure of 'The Wedding Song' has always been a mystery, however this arrangement has been modified for the better with restructuring of the rhythmic and harmonic foundations. It is a much more enjoyable song. The same Don McLean that was drinking whiskey and rye also composed a few love songs: 'And I Love You So' is a favorite on this collection. 'A Whole New World' is the signature Disney delegate and a perfect duet for any ceremony. 'The Lord's Prayer' is an adaptation of the original, though lyrically simplified it is harmonically rich. This collection is mixed voices and all songs are suitable for either male or female solo. Each song is represented twice: one version is the studio version and the other is an accompanied version minus the solo for ceremonial use. All songs have a youthful zest and would fall in the contemporary Christian pop category.

Platinum

Don't Be Talkin Bout Friends I Can Walk Now To Him Piper Song La Song Humble Thyself He Leadeth Me Growin' Up in the Lord Water from the Well Share What We've Got Livin' Inside Peace Be Still

"Platinum" is a gem from the most prolific 4-man musical ministry ever. Blending their inspirational themes in a contemporary-meets-gospel style, the joyous voices of Acappella have recorded dozens of wonderful albums through the years, all featuring immaculate production, strong original songwriting, and a powerful. Characteristically, 10 of the 12 songs are written by producer Keith Lancaster: "Don't Be Talkin' 'Bout Friends," "I Can Walk," "Now To Him," "Piper Song" ( about Keith's daughter ), "La Song," a strong arrangement of "He Leadeth Me," "Growin' Up In The Lord," "Water From The Well," "Share What We've Got" and "Livin' Inside." The excellent songwriting is rivaled only by the spirited leads and soaring harmonies. Inspiring and absolutely beautiful!

Christmas

Twas The Night Before Christmas/Silent Night Your My Christmas Present It's the Time I'll Be Home For Christmas Happy Holiday Mery, Mery Christmas Baby White Christmas Mery Christmas Baby Christmas Song Christmas in Jail Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer Children Go Where I Send Thee

Contemporary Christian group Acappella's Christmas CD features many original compositions with the sophisticated production for which the group is known, along with several traditionals, such as "Go Tell It On The Mountain." The consonant and stirring harmonies are intricately woven, and the group favors effects processing on some of the vocal tracks, giving them a modern edge. Even when singing about the birth of Christ thousands of years ago, the songs can be energetic and uptempo, such as "Merry Christmas," with it's swinging walking bass, and vocal slides. "The Reason For The Season" meanders through a doo wop feel into a 6/8 meter, while "That's What I Love About Christmas" is a whimsical jazz-influenced number, with vocal trumpet and trombone solos. The group adds occasional percussion or keyboard to ornament certain tracks, but Acappella's vocal arrangements, and the quality of the performances, are already as filled with bounty as Santa's sleigh!

Family Christmas

Mary Did You Know Away In a Manger A Tiny Child The First Noel Noel Silent Night Joy to the World There Were Angels O Come, O Come Emanuel Christmas Medley No Other Day Here We Come A Carolling Medley That's What I Love About Christmas Hark the Herald Angels Sing Angels We Have Heard On High Jesus Carol Merry Christmas What Child Is This Is Born a Savior O Holy Night Little Drummer Boy

The Acappella Company, a male inspirational quartet, has the knack of writing clever arrangements without sacrificing emotional intensity, and their intelligent production lends a modern edge and sheen. Some cuts have percussion tracks, which aren't employed as a live trap kit would be, but add groove and fullness. "Family Christmas" includes twenty-one holiday carols and hymns, some of which were included previously on their two former Christmas CD's (also in stock), and four from their childrenUs recording. Some of the older tracks have been refreshed and re-mixed with new vocals for this release, and "Mary Did You Know," "O Holy Night" "Away In A Manger" and "Little Drummer Boy" are brand new.

Carols

Angels We Have Heard On High O Holy Night Hark The Herald Angels Sing Away In A Manger The First Noel O Come All Ye Faithful What Child Is This Joy To The World Little Town of Bethlehem Silent Night

The jubilant voices of the Acappella Company are amazingly prolific, having recorded dozens of albums through the years. Their inspirational themes are blended in a contemporary-meets-gospel style. "Carols" was released in 1993, and features the group performing all of the best-loved holiday gems: "O Holy Night, The First Noel," "Joy To The World" and "Silent Night," plus six more. While the production and arrangements are certainly not plain, by comparison to their original compositions, they are restrained. "Silent Night" retains the simplicity of this ubiquitous melody, but improvises upon it, adding warmth and depth with a resonant bass and perfectly-timed harmonic backing. You can't go wrong with this one!

Acappella Company Songbooks

The exceptionally talented quartet the Acappella Company has produced many recordings during their twenty years together. Though four voices only, their use of studio production techniques allow them to create a pastiche of sound that can be challenging to re-create, and the vocal ranges, particularly the in the tenor, can be as high as F above high C. In addition, though in general the arrangements are TTBB, the number of voice parts does vary between songs. In order to make the arrangements more accessible for quartets and quintets, the Acappella Company has attempted to simplify some of their more complex charts. While not able to analyze every song in detail, we have attempted to provide an overview of each songbook.

This video was filmed at the Madison Church of Christ in Nashville, TN. It features many of the songs that you'll find on The Collection, Acappella's "best of" release. It includes interviews with the guys in the group and some other treats. This is the only place you will find "The Sneeze", that underground rap hit and favorite of knowing Acappella fans everywhere. Lots of humor here. It also includes the concert version of "Shut De Do." This video is a long-awaited 'best-of' collection, and an exemplary introduction to their musical message.
