The Spiritual Harmonizers is an urban contemporary gospel group, made up of current and retired postal employees from Richmond, Virginia, United States of America. The group reached national popularity after performing on America's Got Talent in 2009. The group has seven members and currently performs in churches and other venues in Richmond and along the mid-Atlantic coast of the United States.
Originator James "Leon" Lewis says the group came together in the late 1990s when he was singing, a cappella, in the locker room at the post office in Richmond, and a co-worker a few lockers over picked up the tune. Soon other co-workers would join the group during work breaks or after hours, providing new harmonies.
The group has now grown to seven and includes Lewis (leads), Alton Jones, Michael Ellis, Robert "Doc" Dockery (bass), Lewis Hatcher (leads and falsetto), Brandon Lewis and L.J. Lewis. Brandon and L.J. are Leon Lewis' sons. [1]
