The Campbell Brothers present their typical variety of modern gospel: sacred steel gospel, featuring pedal, and lap steel guitar. Certain US church communities have been using these instruments for some time now to mimic the hollering, growling, weeping and swinging qualities of the human voice. Earlier this year the Campbell Brothers, Chuck (pedal steel), Darick (lap steel), Phil (guitar) and Carlton (drums) could be admired at the Amsterdam BIMhuis. Then, their gospel oriented show, in which most of the performed music originates from the African-American Holiness-Pentecostal church repertoire, was remarkably swinging.
