The retired police officer hopes the song will bring awareness to first responders struggling with mental illness, occupational stress disorders and survivors of those who have been lost.

Canadian singer-songwriter and guitarist John Dorsch has released his latest single and music video, “Save Just One More Life.” The song is a powerful message of hope and a call to action to raise awareness of mental illness and the struggles that many individuals face in silence.

The music video, filmed in the Rideau Ferry area of Ottawa Valley, Ontario, features Dorsch and his wife Dani Baribeau, who also provides background vocals on the track.

Dorsch, a retired police officer with 31 years of service, and his wife, a retired 911 dispatcher with 32 years of civilian service, have both battled their own demons with Occupational Stress Injuries. The couple has also experienced the loss of fellow colleagues who chose to end their lives instead of asking for help.

This inspired Dorsch to write “Save Just One More Life,” a song dedicated to those who struggle to survive and a reminder to have empathy and understanding for others.

“Suicide has become an unfortunate trend among First Responders and Military Forces personnel; this is unacceptable!” says Dorsch. “First responders work to help civilians when they call for help, but unfortunately, when first responders are in need, many feel shame and choose to withdraw.

This is a song of hope. Its message is an important step to raising awareness and to bring hope to those who struggle. Outlook on life can improve when one works toward healing. Keys to healing are love, empathy, understanding, and patience.”

The music video, produced by Dorsch and Baribeau at JDM Studios, features scenic shots of the beautiful Rideau Ferry area, as well as Dorsch’s heartfelt performance and Baribeau’s harmonies. The song is from Dorsch’s upcoming album, “2023 ELEVATiON,” which has already gained over 130K Spotify streams since its release in July 2023.

The album is a blend of jazz, pop, and rock influences, showcasing Dorsch’s impressive guitar skills.

Chart-topping singer/songwriter and BEC recording artist Tasha Layton adds another powerful video to her growing anthology with the compelling performance of “Never,” also her current hit single on Christian radio.

Featuring a rousing choir and dramatic string section, the clip was directed and produced by Daniella Mason, with creative direction and styling by AYA Creative.

Layton’s “Never” video joins fan favorites “Look What You’ve Done,” “Into The Sea (It’s Gonna Be OK),” and “How Far,” which together have amassed millions of views.

“The ‘Never’ video is special to me,” says Layton. “With a new string arrangement by our longtime friend Brandon Collins, I believe this remix will allow listeners to hear—and see—the song in a different way.

The combination of the choir and string section is powerful and I hope viewers will be able to feel the passion that was in the room while we were shooting. I believe wholeheartedly in the message of ‘Never,’ so it’s very meaningful to have brought the song to life in this way.”

As heard in the video, “Never” (Collins String Version) is featured on Layton’s recently released Never (Extended Single Release) EP. Highlighted by the hit single “Never,” penned by Layton, Keith Everette Smith, AJ Pruis, and Matthew West, the EP also includes a rendition of the song featuring Matthew West, as well as an acoustic version of the track.

Layton is currently sharing “Never” with audiences across the country as a special guest, along with Hannah Kerr, on Big Daddy Weave’s “Heaven Changes Everything Tour,” and she will also spotlight the song on her own headlining tour, with special guest Jeremy Rosado, beginning later this month.

The Contemporary Christian music group, Writing Rounds Worship, has teamed up with worship leader, Brendan Kendall, and Hope Chapel Collective, for a bright new worship anthem, “What A Name” (Writing Rounds Worship / GoDigiPath / ADA Music).

Brendan Kendall, leads the track that was recorded at Kansas City’s multicultural  Hope Chapel church with the ministry’s stellar worship team. His smooth tenor is reminiscent of Colton Dixon (“Miracles”) and Brandon Heath (“Give Me Your Eyes”) as he leads the listener through a joyous swirl of dueling guitars, booming background vocals, and arena rock zeal.

The tune is very much in line with the music by platinum groups such as Maverick City Music and Elevation Worship. “It was nearly 2 years ago when myself, Grace Souder, and Javier Batista sat down, virtually, on zoom to write,” Kendall recalls.

“I believe it was Javier that mentioned using the names of God which spurred Grace to relate that concept of putting your name on it to the name of Jesus and everything just exploded from there.”

 “It’s been told that I was singing before I was speaking,” says Kendall, the son of a pastor and his worship leader wife. “ I just have always felt a deep innate longing that singing and leading people to Jesus through music was what I was put on this earth to do.”

Powerhouse vocalist Anna Golden closes the book on her healing journey detailed on her new album ‘Church’ (8.11), sharing a soaring performance of the album’s closing track “Be Magnified.”

On the moving ballad, Golden proclaims her love for the Lord and her faith, giving thanks for the comfort and healing that both have provided her. She joins hands with her community at Shoreline City Church, where leads worship and where she recorded ‘Church,’ to uplift God and each other.

In 2020, amid an intense period of writer’s block resulting from the trauma of the pandemic, internal struggles within, and daunting mental health challenges, Lucy Grimble found that any attempts to write felt insignificant and even pointless. “Ready for the Dawn” was the song that broke this silence and numbness, and in fact kickstarted the writing process for her forthcoming album.

“Ready for the Dawn” embodies the theme of interplay between dark and light, shadow and sun, which runs through the album, as she explains: “During those bleak times, sometimes the sunrise was enough to remind me that things do change.” “Ready for the Dawn” allowed her to be honest, weaving a melody of rediscovered hope through an equally beautiful piano line.

The new single speaks to people in the depths of mental health challenges, pointing to the promises of God. This song builds from the bottom as the listener comes alongside Lucy on her journey from the bleak depths of uncertainty toward the glimmers of light found in the morning.
