    (October 1, 2018) For as long as I can remember, the Winans family members have used the formula of fusing the arrangements of production values of R&B, pop and soul music to spread the good news of the gospel. They’ve done it as The Winans, BeBe and CeCe and the Three Winans Brothers, just to name a few of the iterations. Brother BeBe Winans returns with his new single “Laughter.” This song draws its title and hook straight from scripture, in this case Proverbs 17:22; “A cheerful heart is a good medicine, but a broken spirit drieth up the bones.”

    The track, which is a duet pairing Winans with singer K.S., sports a laid-back bass line with a blues licks from the guitar and lyrics that remind us that laughter can bring perspective and heath. This song has a message that the world needs to hear right now. A lot of stuff going on that can keep your tension and anger level constantly on 10, because that’s not really a good place to be 24/7. Check it out.
