Since releasing their recording of “Amazing Grace” in 2021, The McCrary Sisters — dubbed “Nashville music royalty” by NPR — have lost two members of their legendary family: sister Deborah, and brother Sam, Jr. In the spirit of healing, the iconic group will release two new tracks featuring some of Deborah’s last recordings: “Shake It Off,” out now, and “Run On,” bowing September 2.

Written by Regina McCrary and Ann McCrary, “Shake It Off” aims to encourage — to see beyond the immediate challenge to the big picture, to rest assured there is always a way out and a way through.

“I’d just left church and was on the interstate driving home feeling good,” says Regina. “Someone cut me off and flipped me the bird. And I thought, ‘I have to shake it off.’ Sometimes we get off balance. I realize one of my weaknesses is road rage. I have to catch myself. I have to shake that off. It can happen anytime. You try to be nice to somebody and they get all arrogant and rude, you have to take the upper road.”

On September 2, The McCrary Sisters will release “Run On,” a traditional song with a karmic theme. Ann shares, “When I was a child, my Daddy would always say ‘Don’t worry about it — God’s gonna get ’em.’ I get scared with things going on in the world. There’s nothing I can do personally sometimes, but I know God will take care of it. I might not see it or hear about it, and that’s okay.”

In addition to the renowned voices of Regina, Ann, Alfreda, and Deborah, “Run On” features vocals from Allen McCrary (one of the Sisters’ beloved brothers).

“We are particularly moved to release this expanded family recording this year as we grieve — there were 8 of us, and everybody sang,” the group says. “There were 8 of us, and now we’re 5. It feels especially meaningful to release a song with our brother’s voice this year.”

The McCrary Sisters (who’ve recorded or performed with the likes of Delbert McClinton, Black Keys, Sheryl Crow, Maren Morris, Eric Church, Carrie Underwood, Buddy Miller, Rosanne Cash, Margo Price, Widespread Panic and many more) continue to mourn the June 1st passing of their sister, while honoring her cherished memory.

“Her voice and presence shall be greatly missed,” Alfreda shares. “Deborah was so funny — I’m so honored and blessed that God let me have her for my sister. It’s an awesome feeling when you know someone loves you! Deborah would always say that it was a blessing to be able to sing with her sisters, and we feel the same.”

Israel Odebode returns with another powerful live recording titled – ”Just Move”, the Heavenly dose comes after his first project for the 2022 music year – ”Come Alive”.

Sharing the insight behind the new song, Israel Odebode shares:

”From all signs around the world, there is a rising, and a stirring in the atmosphere, a great awakening.  This is the fulfillment of the scripture. 

One of the depths from which this song was birthed was from the scripture Acts 1:4-5, where Jesus told the disciples: “On one occasion, while he was eating with them, He gave them this command: “DO NOT LEAVE Jerusalem, BUT WAIT for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. 

For John was baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit. Experiencing the move of His Spirit requires WAITING. God is pouring out His Spirit in this end time season.”

New music from Zach Williams is out now! His latest single, the poignant “Heart Of God” (Provident Label Group/Sony Music), is available on all music platforms (listen HERE) and is accompanied by a new music video. View the video below.

Following up to his latest projects, 2021’s holiday gem I Don’t Want Christmas To End and 2019’s Rescue Story, which features his chart-topping duet with Dolly Parton, “There Was Jesus,” fans of the two-time GRAMMY® Award winner have been eagerly waiting for new music. “Heart Of God,” which he co-wrote with Ethan Hulse along with his long-time producer Jonathan Smith, is the first single from Williams’ upcoming album set to release this fall.

“My message has always been that it doesn’t matter where you’ve been or what you’ve done in your life, God’s got a plan for you and He is going to get His plan done somehow,” Williams shares. “Along those same lines, the message of ‘Heart Of God’ is just surrendering your life and giving it all to Him. There’s no limit to what you can do in your life. That’s not saying there aren’t going to be bad days, there will be, but you soon realize those bad days are still better than the best days you had before Christ. It’s knowing you don’t have to do this on your own, that Christ gave His life so you could have a new one, and it’s alright to stumble and fall and mess up. He still loves you and doesn’t give up on you.”

He adds, “I think so many people will relate to its message. No one feels worthy or good enough to deserve God’s love. Honestly, none of us do. But, God knows that and it’s why He sent His Son. For me, God’s love is the biggest characteristic of what His heart is, and that’s the message I’m trying to share.”

Williams will be sharing the new song along with many of his previous hits on his headlining tour this fall. Kicking off September 14 and running through November 20, the Zach Williams Fall ’22 Tour will hit 36 major markets, such as New York City, Colorado Springs, Baton Rouge, Phoenix, and Austin, and will feature special guest Ben Fuller. Additionally, the tour will offer something even more special than ever before.
