SUMMARY:Blind Boys of Alabama present Songs in the Key of Life
DESCRIPTION:BLIND BOYS OF ALABAMA present Songs in the Key of Life A 50th
  Anniversary Celebration of the classic Stevie Wonder album & More! The 
 Blind Boys of Alabama are recognized worldwide as living legends of gosp
 el music. Celebrated by The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and Th
 e Recording Academy/GRAMMYs with Lifetime Achievement Awards\, inducted 
 into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame\, and winners of six GRAMMY® Awards\,
  they have attained the highest levels of achievement in a career that s
 pans over 70 years. The Blind Boys are known for crossing multiple music
 al boundaries with their remarkable interpretations of everything from t
 raditional gospel favorites to contemporary spiritual material by songwr
 iters such as Eric Clapton\, Prince\, and Tom Waits. They have appeared 
 on recordings with many artists\, including Lou Reed\, Peter Gabriel\, B
 onnie Raitt\, Willie Nelson\, Aaron Neville\, Susan Tedeschi\, Ben Harpe
 r\, Patty Griffin\, and Taj Mahal. The Blind Boys released their latest 
 album\, ‘Echoes Of The South\,’ in August of 2023. It found the Gospel M
 usic Hall of Fame inductees coming home to Alabama to record in Muscle S
 hoals. The eleven-song collection is a portrait of perseverance from a g
 roup well-versed in overcoming incredible odds – from singing for pocket
  change in the Jim Crow South to performing for three different American
  presidents\, soundtracking the Civil Rights movement\, and helping defi
 ne modern gospel music as we know it. The album garnered three GRAMMY® A
 ward nominations\, and won for Best Roots Gospel Album. That win continu
 ed a run of GRAMMY® Award nominations from the two previous years. In 20
 21\, the group’s collaborative recording with Béla Fleck\, ‘I Wish I Kne
 w How It Would Feel To Be Free\,’ was tapped in the Best American Roots 
 Performance category. In 2022\, they garnered another nod for their coll
 aboration with the band Black Violin on ‘The Message’ in the Best Americ
 ana Performance category. In March 2024\, the definitive book on the Bli
 nd Boys of Alabama\, titled Spirit of the Century\, was released. It’s a
 n insider history of America’s longest-running group and the untold stor
 y of their world\, written with band members and key musical colleagues.
  Appearances on The View tv show and other major media outlets followed.
  After all these years\, the Blind Boys show no signs of slowing down!\n
