The Nelons Release Final Album

The highly anticipated project, Loving You, which the Nelons have declared as their best work yet, releases today. The release of the project was uncertain following the tragic passing of Jason and Kelly Nelon Clark, their daughter Amber, son-in law Nathan Kistler, their assistant Melodi Hodges, and the pilot Larry Haynie and his wife Melissa in Wyoming while en route to perform on the Gaither Family Cruise earlier this summer.

However, after much consideration, surviving member Autumn Nelon Streetman, the youngest member of The Nelons’, felt it appropriate to honor the family’s legacy by releasing the project on its original release date. Loving You, features the award winning and Hall of Fame group’s unmatched musical talent and unbounding faith. 

The project carries an added layer of significance with each song on Loving Youserving as a tribute to their life mission of spreading the gospel. Tracks such as, “Hands of an Unseen God,” “We’ve Always Had A Song” and “Moses” reflect the group’s unique ability to minister faith in the midst of pain while rejoicing in the power of divine intervention.

Additionally songs, such as the title track, “Loving You” and “That’s What Love Is” offers a simple yet needed reminder that love never fails. The ten-track album, an unapologetic celebration of The Nelons musical integrity and unwavering commitment to their faith, brings together a collection of timeless songs that will continue to inspire for generations to come.

“I had no idea how big an impact this album would have on my life, especially what I’m walking through,” says Autumn Nelon Streetman. “There is a song on this album called, “Hand of an Unseen God,” and the lyrics say, ‘In my weeping and rejoicing, When my world is good or when it falls apart, I’m held by the hand of an unseen God’ and I had no idea I would be walking through those lyrics right now.”

Ed Leonard, president of Daywind Records stated, “Kelly, Amber, and Jason were immensely proud of this recording produced by Jason, Gordon Mote, Wayne Haun, and Bill Gaither, and featuring their friends Joseph Habedank, N.T. Martin, and the Gaither Vocal Band. Please let it minister to you as it has to us as we face the loss of these amazingly talented people who lived what they sang about every day.”

Dusty Wells, director of artist & label relations at Daywind continued by saying, “Loving You is more than just a music project; it’s a testament to The Nelon’s’ enduring legacy and anointed artistry. From the moment we began working on this album at Daywind Records, I knew it was something special. Jason, Kelly, Amber, Autumn and our team looked for and listened to countless songs before narrowing it down to songs that we felt would minister in a very special way.

This project captures the heart and soul of who The Nelons are, not just as artists, but as people who have spent their lives pouring love into their music and their audience. Who knew that this project would be the last recording that they would bring to us. The project is a musical tapestry of hope, strength, peace and love and I know without a shadow of a doubt, it will help countless others on their own journey.

Yes, we will certainly miss Jason, Kelly, and Amber, but the music will live on…after all, they will always have a song.  This is undoubtedly one of their best works yet, and its impact will resonate for generations, leaving an indelible mark on their legacy.”

Lauren Daigle Releases ‘Sessions’ Live Collection

Two-time GRAMMY Award Winner and multi-platinum selling performing artist Lauren Daigle releases a very special collection of reimagined songs entitled Sessions. Recorded live in front of a limited audience, the 8-tracks highlight the beauty in the songcraft and purity of Daigle vocal prowess.

“I love that we’re able to share versions of these songs that people might not have heard before,” shares Daigle.  “I think it’s what makes them special. I also thought it’d be cool to add something a little different, something we’ve never done before, so I thought what better, more poignant song is there than Joe Cocker’s “You Are So Beautiful”.  It’s up there on my list of all-time favorites.”

Sessions marks the debut release of the recordings captured at SiriusXM, which were previously only heard during the original performances.

[Album] Basic Faith – Sean Curran

Today (Aug 9), sixstepsrecords/Capitol Christian Music Group’s Sean Curran releases Basic Faith. 

“Jesus came to do more than get us into heaven, He came to get heaven into us,” shares Sean Curran about this album. “The idea that God wants to be discovered in our everyday lives is weaved throughout this album. I think we can tend to build in our imagination a world where we only relate to God in spectacular settings, but that is not where we spend most of our time.

That’s why I like the word ‘Basic.’ It’s less about simple or easy, and more akin to something like fundamental or foundational. Often we want something from faith that it isn’t trying to give us. Faith isn’t about knowing what’s around every corner, it’s about trusting WHO is leading the way.”

Although this is his first full-length studio project, Curran has established himself as a thoughtful and creative songwriter since his first record deal at 22 years old with the Billboard chart-ranking band Bellarive. Since 2018, he has been part of the sixstepsrecords family delivering a long list of songs such as “Bigger Than I Thought,” “Glorious Day,” “1000 Names” and most recently “He Who Is To Come.” Known for his unique artistry, Basic Faith captures new styles and sounds that will give the listener a path to take them back to the fundamentals of their faith.
