Famous for breaking down barriers between southern gospel, country, and gospel music, The Crabb Family reignites their genre-bending sound with a solid ten-song reunion. Giving their faith-assured lyrics a modern country musical context—with heart-tugging pedal steel, double-stop fiddle, easy-going banjo, and country-infused electric guitar—the siblings’ soulful vocal prowess translates their ministerial hearts to tape. Together is a polished progressive set that lyrically upholds traditional values for younger gospel generations and musically serves as a complementary side project to the family’s individual careers—including Jason’s Grammy-winning standout success.
