After a history of live performances and studio collaborations, The Blind Boys of Alabama and Ben Harper will release a new studio album on September 21st entitled "There Will Be A Light" (Virgin) which features eleven tracks, mostly Ben Harper originals, but also includes covers of the traditional gospel song “(If I Could Hear My) Mother Pray” and the country folk classic "Satisfied Mind.”

Initially, “There Will Be A Light” began as Ben Harper working with the Blind Boys on two songs for the Blind Boys next studio release. However, there was magic in the studio, and the sessions quickly turned into a full-blown collaboration. “They’re one of the musical wonders of the world,” Harper explains. A national television appearance is already confirmed; The Blind Boys will appear with Ben Harper on The Late Show with David Lettermen on October 11.
