Jump Into The Gospel

How do you come up with a name like Jump Into The Gospel? Simple. Special-K isn't just a breakfast cereal.

How does Gospel write such, “I will save Zelda!” pop songs? Simple. They carb up and hit the batting cages before every band practice.

What does the last letter in the song O.P.P. stand for? Well... that's not that simple.

Playing packed clubs and churning out lo-fi anthems that are equipped with viscous synth leads, turbulent vocals, and indelible hooks, Jump into the Gospel has been preaching the certainty that fragmented pop, rock, dance, and electro mix better than a DJ switching from wine to whiskey.

Jump into the Gospel is fronted by Louis Epstein, a native New Yorker, whose emphatic vocals and interspersed wailing falsettos, are reminiscent of Robert Smith, David Byrne, and Shaun Ryder (Happy Mondays). Helpingspread the Word are guitar player and back-up vocalist Ben Vescovi, bass player Lakis Pavlou, keyboard player Erik Tonnesen , and drummer Chris Stein.

Gospel is currently punching shows’ lights out in support of the band's first EP recorded at Brooklyn Recording with Ben Liscio (who has collaborated with producers and artists Rich Costey, Dave Sitek, The Strokes, and TV on the Radio). So get on your knees, grab some illegal holy water (or Robitussin) and don't be scared – The Gospel will get you there.
