Times Colonist

Introduced backing Jim Byrnes’ wonderful, Juno-winning 2006 recording House of Refuge, this Vancouver-based gospel trio’s debut is an old school gem. Ron Small, Will Sanders and Marcus Mosely are music veterans and integral members of the Good Noise Vancouver Gospel Choir. On “Hold On’, the trio produces soulful harmonic and rhythmic textures carved from a sanctified repertoire of gospel, folk, and soul classics. Their understated, spare approach includes Steve Dawson’s tasty guitar and a pair of incendiary vocal contributions from Jim Byrnes on Jesus Hits Like the Atom Bomb and Run On.
