"Modern Spiritual" by Eric A. Yancy, MD

Pediatrician, Eric A. Yancy has been has been taking care of the children of Indianapolis for more then three decades... fulfilling his own childhood dream to become a physician. Along the way, he’s also been pursuing his passion for singing, recently completing his debut gospel album, Modern Spiritual. The Baton Rouge, Louisiana, native has been singing as long as he can remember. “I sang my first solo for a Christmas program when I was in second grade. I sang Silent Night. I actually sneaked into the youth choir at my church when I was 12, but they let me stay.” Known for his smooth baritone sounds, Dr. Yancy has been uplifting and inspiring audiences nationwide, sharing the word of GOD through song. His inspiration for the title song on his album came one morning, following a newscast about a tragic murder. “A young patient of mine had been shot to death the night before. I wondered what could be the difference between the old days and the new ones. Why so much strife? Then I wondered if it could be that we have placed God on the back burner, in favor of our own successes and indulgences”, From that, Modern Spiritual was born. Dr. Yancy’s musical journey is just beginning with the release of his first solo album. He hopes you’ll be inspired… to put GOD back as the head of your life. Copyright © 2009 – 2010 Eric A. Yancy.
