The talented
Amber Bullock was the traditional choice, but Sunday Best's Season 4 runner-up
Andrea Helms won a loyal audience thanks to her unique, bluesy style.
Moving Forward -- and that's an ironic title to apply to the runner-up of a televised gospel singing competition -- is
Helms' debut EP and serves to feed the fan base that exploded in 2012. As such, it's patched together in that last-minute fashion and it's frustratingly short, but all the performances are powerful, moving, and skillfully crafted when it comes to the music itself, with church organ and other organic touches making this feel like Sunday morning no matter what the time. ~ David Jeffries
