About Erik and Virginia’s New ‘Traditional Gospel, Hymns and Spirituals Record

Colorado Americana artists Erik Lunde and Sweet Virginia teamed up with celebrated Colorado artist and producer AJ Fullerton to make a new record of “Gospel, Hymns and Spirituals” which will be released in late summer of 2024. The record is an Old Timey Carter Family-Style celebration of some of the most beloved old Gospel songs in the American Songbook: “I’ll Fly Away”, “Angel Band,” “Wayfaring Stranger,” “Trouble Of The World” and more. The songs draw deeply from the Duo’s upbringing in the Southern Baptist church with influences from the Folk, Country, Bluegrass and African-American spiritual styles. They will be playing the new record in its entirety as well as a few of their most popular original Folk, Country and Americana songs.

Set One: Erik and Virginia do a short set each of their best original material from their most recent records “Water From The Stone” and “Leaving Again”.

Set Two: The Gospel, Hymns & Spirituals set. We’ll play the new record in its entirety and add a few more Gospel classics.
