Under the leadership of founder and director Patrick Lundy, an exceptional assembly of vocalists from the Washington Metropolitan Area have become one of gospel music’s most notable choirs. Patrick Lundy and the Ministers of Music (PL&MOM) are THAT choir who consistently provide a spirit-filled, vocally striking performance delivered in authentic praise.
This dynamic community choir debuted over twenty years ago at Ebenezer AME Church in Fort Washington, MD. PL&MOM now have six albums in their catalog: WE SING THE POWER (1995),YOU CARRIED ME (1998), STANDIN’ (2003), IN THE FELLOWSHIP (2005), DETERMINED(2012), and MAJESTY (2014). They have appeared with a “Who’s Who” in music including B.B. King, Lyle Lovett, Roberta Flack, Peabo Bryson and Jennifer Holliday. They have also appeared at the White House, represented the United States at the World’s Fair in Lisbon, Portugal, toured Spain and Italy and performed at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
PL&MOM are kicking off their summer of 2017 with a new single release “He’s My Rock”. Available now on digital music outlets and playing on gospel radio, “He’s My Rock” represents the essence of a great gospel choir song – a dynamic anthem that ministers faith and hope in a spirit lifting, musically contagious presentation. “He’s My Rock” is first glance at their forthcoming live album BY FAITH set to release in August.
