The Campbell Brothers present Sacred Steel: African American gospel music with electric steel guitar and vocals. This tradition emerges from the House of God Keith Dominion Church, where for over sixty years it has been an integral part of worship and a vital, if little known, American tradition.

As the music moves from sanctuary to concert hall — including the Hollywood Bowl, the Kennedy Center, and Lincoln Center, secular audiences are now able to appreciate a performance that is both devoted and rocking.

The Campbell Brothers present a compelling, rich variety of material from the African-American Holiness-Pentecostal repertoire with a new twist: the growling, wailing, shouting, singing and swinging voice of the steel guitar, played as you have never heard it played before.

“The Campbell Brothers play music that until recently was heard only in gospel churches, with pedal steel guitar lines swooping skyward like a gospel shouter.” — Jon Pareles, The New York Times.
