(NASHVILLE, Tennessee) --
Jimmy Needham fans are finding plenty to be thankful for this month,
starting with the May 4th release of his seventh studio album, Vice
& Virtue (Platinum Pop Records). The cinematic music video for the
title track was released during street week, followed by the
just-released lyric video for spoken word fan-favorite, "The Story."
Needham describes "The Story" as the Gospel in five minutes.
The Story was the first track I wrote for Vice & Virtue, says Needham. I actually wrote it as a piece for a friend's wedding. I've always loved slam poetry and have historically ended my albums with a spoken word track. This was the first time that we incorporated music into it. The music helped to really make it a piece of art I've never tried before.
