*“I don’t want to loose the traditions of Christmas,” said Dr. Erica Barr when discussing the release of her new album, “Christmas with the Barrs” (The Barr’s Tiger Records), recorded with her husband Bishop Frederick Barr. “Bringing family together especially with what the world is going through now.”

The “Christmas with the Barrs” album features vocal assistance from Grammy winning Dr. Bobby Jones, Mark Kibble (Take 6), Kyla Jade (“The Voice”), and Anne Taylor-Slaughter.

“Our project has Dr. Bobby Jones on ‘Jesus, What a Wonderful Child’,” Bishop Barr informed me. “We traveled with Dr. Bobby Jones. I told him I never knew he’d be on own project. He said, ‘I been asked before but said no.’ We have Mark from Take 6 on two songs…does a duet with my wife on ‘Favorite Things.’”

The project is produced by Bishop and Dr. Barr, with Lance Lucas (Jekalyn Carr, Lisa Knowles). The “Go Tell It on the Mountain” track is a single and features Anne Taylor-Slaughter. It is accompanied by a music video produced by Danny Fuentes and filmed in snowy Denver.

“We come from musical backgrounds at church, high school…its always been a part of our lives,” the Bishop added. “God gave us a great project…’The Little Drummer Boy’ has African drums.”
