Gospel

Our candles are handcrafted to order. Please allow 3-5 business days for your order to be processed and shipped. Thanks! Listen to our Bright Black Gospel Playlist here! Scent Notes: Like a soothing balm or an uplifting hymn, this ceremonial blend of chamomile, lilac and myrrh will inspire hope even after the craziest of days. Candle Details: Each 10oz Black, matte vessel contains 7.5 ounces of wax and custom-blended fragrance, along with all natural cotton or wooden wicks. 70-80 hours of burn time each. Why Gospel?: Rooted in early Black Spirituals and work songs, Gospel music represents one of the earliest soundtracks for freedom, unity, and hope. Deeply sentimental with characteristic call and response, Gospel music would eventually be transformed into the backbone of so many other musical genres we know and love today--blues, jazz, soul, and R&B, to name just a few. The centrality of spirituality and Gospel music to the Black experience, to the quest for freedom, and to the harmony of survival are just a few of the reasons we included this musical style in our Genres Collection.
