Down to the River to Pray (Multi-track A Cappella)

An a cappella cover of the traditional spiritual. Arrangement is by Philip Lawson for The King's Singers. This rendition was inspired by the Alison Krauss rendition from the soundtrack of the movie "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" by the Coen Brothers.

All parts sung by Brandon Toy and Nicholas Helms.

Can you do a cover of Joshua Fit the Battle?

[SongstaForLife]

@JakeThePeg93 I might actually! There is an arrangement by The Swingle Singers that I absolutely love.

Great work..... you keep moving your head around all you want !!

@MMprotopaintball20 haha. sorry! it is my personal conviction that singing is about movement and energy inflected aurally, and one of the best methods to assimilate that energy into sound is through the incorporation of physical movement. though i could have probably planted my feet better, i was mainly concentrating on not messing up and singing the wrong words. hahaha.

@SongstaForLife I can't wait for the new videos :D. As for my user name I just combined the two most random things I could think of so I wouldn't forget it. XD
