Bri Babineaux, who rose to fame in 2015 with riveting YouTube gospel performances that earned millions of views and then in the following year bowed a debut album, heralded as a slick #1 bestselling contemporary gospel offering, is back on the scene with a new musical direction and work, The Encounter Continues (Bri Babineaux Music/Tyscot Records). This Louisiana lovely had limited input on her inaugural set, but took full command of this first-time venture with her own imprint and Tyscot. From co-writing songs, supervising the art design and carefully selecting cover songs, Bri delivers a high-energy live project that was recorded at a church just outside of New Orleans.
