Poetry
Band readies new Christian spiritual for stage and film
production.
Los
Angeles (Billboard Publicity Wire) June 10, 2008 -- Get ready
for something new...
Poetry
Band is far from your average rock or Christian band.
The band features the spiritual poems of author Wilson
Sherman combined with an ever-growing collective of talented
musicians. Poetry Band is a kind of modern opera
and musical theatre with Sherman writing, speaking, and singing
the poetry to the accompaniment of the band. With several 65 minute
non-stop albums, the result is unique, enlightening, and unlike
anything else ever recorded. Although they are one of few spoken
word Christian bands in the world, the marriage of poetry and
music has a tradition. Perhaps, as Wilson has said, "the
first poetry band was David jamming with musicians on Psalms."
Wilson
has penned two books, "Exit and "Rooms,"
and is currently wrapping up his third book, "Revival".
Revival has already been put to music by Poetry
Band and has had the honor of getting personal recognition
from former President Bill Clinton, who called the CD, "Great!"
Clinton has been a fan of Poetry Band since the
days he listened to their albums in the White House.
In
2008, Wilson and Poetry Band are once again breaking
the sound barrier by staging a musical from his book "Rooms."
Described as a celebration of the Holy Ghost, and a spiritual
journey, the theatrical performance will combine spoken word and
song and amazing new music. There are not many spirituals in musical
history, and Poetry Band plans to advance the
good cause by producing "Rooms" as
a spiritual musical for CD/ DVD and possible film. Welcome to
the 21st century! Come and join the band….
