“I want her to know that it’s possible to listen to fun music and not have to give up certain values.” Mary-Clair shares, “these are songs that I poured my heart out into and I just think that they are so timely in our world today, both musically and lyrically. Sometimes I listen to it and think, I can’t believe this is me. This is too good to be true.”

Justin Gambino’s ‘Just Like Jesus’ EP Spotlights A Prodigal’s New Life

Illuminating the joys and struggles of a post-prodigal life with refreshing candor and profound gratitude, award-winning singer/songwriter Justin Gambino bows his Residence Music debut EP, Just Like Jesus, July 18. Rooted in his signature soul-fueled, folk-rock sound, the project features five selections co-penned by Justin Gambino and produced by his longtime collaborator Walter Halliwell.

From the wayward son’s welcome home to a man fully surrendered to Christ, the autobiographical set testifies to God’s faithfulness in Justin Gambino’s life. “Writing and recording this EP has not only been a reminder of what God has brought me through, but also where He’s taking me,” he says. “It has given me a new perspective to see other prodigals, as I continue to share my heart through music.”

justlikejesus scaled

Penned by Justin Gambino, Halliwell and James Tealy, the standout title cut is a celebration of grace, charting a definitive course for the EP. Additional highlights of Just Like Jesus include “You Were Always There,” chronicling God’s pursuit of Justin Gambino during his military deployment in Iraq; the buoyant “Wake Me Up,” a reminder of the need for daily revival in the Lord; “Good Intentions,” an introspective plea for forgiveness and authenticity; and “Judas In Me,” written by Gambino along with Walter and Holly Halliwell. The latter track is one of Gambino’s most vulnerable songs to date.

“Mark Batterson’s book Not Safe sparked the inspiration for ‘Judas In Me,’” Gambino explains. “It’s about the daily battle of the flesh—that somewhere deep inside of all of us, there is a spirit of Judas. Knowing Judas would betray Him, Jesus still called him a friend and there was still a place at the table for him. All too often I’ve betrayed my Savior, without the intention of doing so, yet time and time again He calls me a friend and invites me to the table of grace.”

In support of the Just Like Jesus EP, Gambino is set to hit the road June 22 with stops throughout the Southwest, Midwest and Pacific Northwest this summer and fall. “I can see how God has been setting up divine appointments for me to minister to people who are on the same path I was,” he shares. “Those opportunities largely happen out on the road, which is why I’m really excited to take these songs from the studio to the streets.”

Matt Crocker To Release Debut Solo Album ‘interlude’ June 27

Matt Crocker, the longstanding member and vocalist of Hillsong UNITED and Hillsong Worship, is set to release his solo music debut album titled interlude on June 27, for which pre-orders are now live. Produced by Michael Guy Chislett (Hillsong UNITED) and Aaron Hollinger (Hillsong Young & Free), the anticipated 11-track collection weaves Crocker’s love of worship and lyrics with his passion for alternative genres of music.

Fans have already fueled excitement for Crocker’s new music by streaming his first three singles “hallelujah,” “love me as i am” and “JESUS” more than 1 million times combined since releasing the songs over the last two months.

As one of the most celebrated songwriters in contemporary Christian music who wrote and performed anthems including “Oceans (Where Feet May Fail),” “This I Believe (The Creed),” and “I Surrender,” Crocker reveals he spent over three years writing more than 100 songs for this debut.

interlude

The multi-platinum singer/songwriter explains, “Ever since I can remember, I’ve turned to music as the way I deal with the moments of life that are “more than I can handle” kind of moments. It’s always realigned and reconnected my heart to t

he only One who has ever brought me any real solace in the midst of the ever distorting outside noise of my world that seems to spiral out of control the moment I take my song off of Him.” He adds, “interlude is just that… no attempt to put songs in services or other spaces, but instead, just picking up an instrument and letting something out that is completely prayer, completely worship, completely me out in the field crying out to Jesus to find me in every up and down state of life.”

Crocker describes the theme of interlude as “the in-between”  and says sonically this collection is a “merciful rest for the soul,” stating, “If you’re living in the middle of the in between of what was and what is to come of your life and you’re unsure of which way is up, maybe these songs, this interlude, could bring you some joy, some peace, some healing, some truth, some conviction and courage that maybe you’re right where God want’s you to be.”

On May 23, Crocker released the prayerful single “JESUS,” which echoes back to the familiar hymn “He Is Mine,” and immediately pierces the heart of the listener with Crocker’s tender vocals and haunting production. The song’s stunning live performance video was filmed on the roof of a warehouse in Orange County, California, and just released last week.

These songs follow the project’s athemic lead single “hallelujah,” and tender ballad “love me as i am,” both released last month on all music platforms including to his 2.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify.

Hopeful. Reminds Listeners That There’s Hope Beyond Belief With Their New EP ‘Wild One’

Hopeful. is back with their latest project, the Wild One EP. Fresh off the heels of their latest single, “Sticks & Stones,” the new EP reminds listeners that the light shines brighter than the dark—and nothing can keep one of God’s beloved “wild ones” down.

Comprised of Randy James on lead vocals and acoustic guitar, Hunter Jackson on lead guitar, Rafael Bastos on rhythm guitar, Eddie Bulena on bass, and James Barragan on drums, the EP was produced by Gable Price of Gable Price and Friends, mixed by Sawyer Knox, mastered by Luke Pimentel, and cover art by Dan Elliot. The Wild One EP came out of a time when Hopeful. seemed to be at a fork in the road. They weren’t sure if the band would continue.

“I thought maybe our time had come and gone, but God had other plans,” Randy said. “Hunter called me and said he was ready to go all in. He said that it was time for us to jump in with two feet and create something special. The rest of the band followed suit and that was the beginning of our next project, the Wild One EP.”

The Wild One EP is comprised of six songs, “Sticks & Stones (Don’t Lose Your Head),” “It’ll All Be Fine,” “Wild One,” “Chasing After God,” “Words Don’t Pay,” and “Fractured Soul.” All of these songs were previously released as singles, except “It’ll All Be Fine,” a song that hits close to home for Randy.

The song touches on the realities of generational curses, or “generational patterns” as Randy describes it. “It’ll All Be Fine” offers hope that with God’s help, these curses/patterns can be broken and new patterns can be established, while also offering peace in God’s unconditional love.

“This song says, ‘Feels like I’m stuck in a night terror, but you whisper it’ll all be fine,’” Randy said. “This is using a direct reference from life—my 10-year-old sometimes struggles with night terrors, and the only way I can snap him out of them is by loving him through it, whispering, ’It’ll all be fine, buddy. God’s got you,’ and getting him to fall back to sleep. I hope people can see that God’s love is the Father’s love and that if I (merely a man) can love my son like I do, imagine how much deeper God’s love is for us.”

This theme of the Father’s love is one that Randy hopes resounds throughout the entire EP.

“I hope this EP reminds listeners that no matter where you’ve been or what you’ve done, we have a good father and there’s more hope than we could ever imagine. So don’t you dare think of giving up for being too far gone. You can’t keep a wild one down.”

Hopeful. has seen success with their song “Wild One” being featured on Apple Music’s globally ranked “Today’s Christian” playlist, as well as entering the top 200 streamed songs for the entire Christian genre on Apple Music. Collectively on all platforms, “Wild One” has been streamed nearly one million times and continues to be added to radio stations across the country.

Hopeful. will be performing at Alive Music Festival in Mineral City, Ohio, on July 18, Oceanside, California, on July 26, and Nashville, Tennessee on August 26 at The End. The band recently signed to Jeff Roberts Agency who will be working with the band to plan out other shows and touring opportunities.

Hopeful. plans to release a full-length album later this year, as well as more singles this summer. They have also released new merchandise in honor of the new EP.
