Naomi Shelton and the Gospel Queens: What Have You Done, My Brother? (Daptone Records)

"Naomi Shelton’s broad, muscular voice gives the gospel-infused soul songs she sings impossible weight — sometimes it feels as if they could deflect a bullet." - New York Times (May 22, 2009)

"If gospel is a great American art form, Naomi Shelton should be considered a national treasure." - Washington Post's Express (May 7, 2009)

Check out Naomi's performance on WNYC's Soundcheck from last Friday (gold hat and all!) here.
