Angelo & Veronica “The Truth” Album Review

Few acts can cross-pollinate genres with ease and success as Angelo and Veronica. In a culture of segregation where black Gospel radio and the rest of CCM have tacit lines drawn between their artists and songs, Angelo and Veronica were one of the first artists to have hits in both camps.

The Nelons “The Americana Sessions” Album Review

The word "Americana" is a genre-trawling word these days. It can be used to encompass anything from country to alternative rock to folk to rock to bluegrass to old time Gospel music. And this is how the Nelons are giving definition to this nebulous word here too.
