The music video directed by Dustin Haney premiered exclusively on Facebook on Nov. 16, and is available below.

Community-driven Housefires released its new single “Lean on the Lord (feat. Ryan Ellis & Cecily),” a track that follows the group’s “Only Jesus (feat. Kirby Kaple, Chandler Moore & DOE)” (10.28). These songs are the first of new music from the group’s album ‘How To Start A Housefire,’ out Jan. 27 via Capitol CMG/ TRIBL Records.
Housefires is credited with reviving the way worship songs are written, recorded and experienced, embracing its sound within by visually demonstrating the community. The group’s core consists of Davy Flowers, Ryan Ellis, Cecily, Kirby Kaple, Chandler Moore, DOE, Ahjah Walls, Blake Wiggins, Harvest Grapevine, Nate Moore and KJ Scriven — together offering an unrefined sound that’s free of the safety and restraints that a normal studio, and even a live recording set, often offers.
In 2014, Housefires forever rewrote the worship landscape when they released two premiere projects within a few months of each other. Since then, worship leading, songwriting, and collaboration were re-evaluated and reconstructed to reflect the Housefires model that embraced a more unfiltered sound and approach to worship from the writing room to the stage.
Their forthcoming project ‘How To Start A Housefire’ (1.27.2023) strips the veneer and illusion of “success and fame” within a worship or music industry context, reminding people of the foremost mission of the group. These songs are meant to be a resource for the church in thought and creed rather than elements to tack onto a Sunday setlist.
The group will tour early 2023, and more music news and tour dates are to come. In the meantime, new music and tickets can be found at housefires.org. Pre-order ‘How To Start A Housefire’ here, and follow #Housefires #HowToStartaHousefire.

New Capitol Christian Music Group (CCMG) signee Christian Paul knows when to “Walk Away,” as evidenced by his brand new song available across all DSPs today (11/18). Stream the fresh pop track HERE.
Produced by Frequency (Eminem, Rihanna, Snoop Dogg), “Walk Away” is autobiographical in many ways, considering Christian walked away from a mainstream record deal and aspirations of becoming the next Justin Timberlake or Robin Thicke. The Alabama native grew up on a steady diet of Michael Jackson, Radiohead, Pearl Jam, Creed, Nirvana and Weezer; but it was his introduction to Jodeci and other R&B legends that made him fall in love with rhythm and blues.
By the time he was 12, Christian had taught himself how to play guitar and was constantly singing. A brief stint in a now defunct boyband gave him his first taste of the spotlight, but it was his incredible falsetto that led to a solo record deal at 19. During his debut radio tour, one night alone in his hotel room he came across a YouTube video in his Recommended List of a pastor “faithfully preaching the Gospel,” and slowly his life began to change.
Feeling like his new values were at odds with his fast-rising road to pop stardom, the soulful singer made the difficult decision to step away from his mainstream label deal. Assuming this was likely the demise of his career, he took an indefinite hiatus from music. After much soul-searching, the now 22-year-old eventually agreed to meet with some interested labels in Nashville and found a new home at CCMG, where he brings his mainstream pop sensibilities and his tender heart for theology to the original songs he’s crafting.
“My pursuit of musical excellence was always a genuine God-given thing, a God-given bent. He just designed me this way, to have these inclinations toward musical things,” Christian shares. “But the call is ultimately submission. It’s a yielding of one’s life to Christ, to be so persuaded by a truth that you conform your very life to it — that’s faith, and that’s what I’m committed to.”
“Walk Away” follows Christian’s introductory song, “Won’t Rain Anymore,” which quietly ushered in his next era, previewing what’s to come with its textured sonics, effortless vocals and an undeniably positive message. Zane Lowe premiered the rainbow-after-the-rain track — also produced by Frequency — on Apple Music, giving listeners a glimpse into Christian’s fresh musical direction.
Christian is currently writing with some of the top songwriters in Christian music — including Paul Duncan, Jonathan Smith, Jason Ingram, and Paul Mabury, among others — while simultaneously working on original songs with producers who have helmed projects for some of the biggest names in pop, hip-hop and R&B.
Stream “Walk Away” across all platforms HERE.
Blessing Offor shares “Feel Good.” The official lyric video can be viewed below.
The track is another pre-release from his upcoming full length debut My Tribe, available on all major music streaming platforms next year (Jan 13).
“Feel Good” is available now.
After introducing their energetic live version of Christmas classic ‘Oh Come All Ye Faithful’, Thrive Worship release a new single version.
This reimagined rendition is focused on the local church, for Her to carry this beautiful song throughout the season.
The upbeat take on the classic Christmas carol combined with the powerful vocals of leader Corbin Phillips bring listeners to a place of joy and triumph. Thrive Worship’s version of ‘Oh Come All Ye Faithful’ finishes with a medley of ‘Little Drummer Boy’, highlighting the festive thread that runs through the new single.
The Sacramento-based worship group hope that their take on ‘Oh Come All Ye Faithful’ brings out something new and refreshing by the power of the Holy Spirit.
“Oh Come All Ye Faithful” is available now.
‘The Saviour Is Here’ wasn’t originally meant to be a Christmas song. ICF Worship set out to write a song based on Revelation, a highly descriptive book giving its readers a glimpse of the throne room of God and the heavenly host’s worship.
Yet, the Swiss band quickly saw the hopeful theme of the Christmas being birthed in the lyrics, celebrating the time when heaven met earth in the most powerful way.
‘The Saviour Is Here’ is an emotive, congregational, and spacious song starting on a beautiful piano melody and evolving into a strings and choir-backed worship carol.
The release also includes an instrumental version of ‘The Saviour Is Here’. In a season of confusion, crisis, and fear, the new single seeks to set our minds on the Eternal Hope and Light of the world, Jesus Christ.
“The Saviour Is Here” is available now.
Today, country singer-songwriter Jenna Torres shares a message of spiritual surrender with “Prayers Up,” her third single from her highly-anticipated upcoming album, Heaven & Hurt. People will often utter a prayer when they are at their lowest ebb—a desperate plea for things to be different and for light to shine in on the darkness. “Prayers Up” (and its emotionally evocative video) illustrates the miracle that lies within simply asking for help.
“This is a very special song to me about the incredible power of personal and collective prayer. It is about being lost and finally finding oneself in conversation with a higher power, asking for the strength we can’t find on our own.”
“Prayers Up” is an intimate and confessional ballad with soulful strings, comforting mandolin melodies, and Jenna’s plaintive vocals which rise skyward as the song’s uplifting message takes flight. The song delicately unfolds revealing layers of gospel redemption with honeyed harmony vocals and Jenna’s powerhouse pipes which summon country’s rich history of pop-hooks and salvation-themed storylines.
The song’s emotionally evocative video starts with Jenna in a darkened room, curled up in a chair singing with the debris of challenging times strewn all around her. The pain and loneliness feel real in these moments, bringing to life the poignance of the song’s opening lines. As the video progresses, hope arrives with the life-changing power of prayer.
An acclaimed singer-songwriter, Jenna has penned songs for Warner Music Group and Warner/Chappell Music, including the anthem “Proud” for the Weather Girls’ Martha Wash and co-writing the For King & Country hit “Busted Heart” (alongside Ben Glover), landing the song the Top 10 on the Billboard Christian Hot 100, AC, and CHR charts. She has also released a string of albums including A Woman’s Touch, Wild Sugar, and All Heart.
The Dallas-based singer-songwriter releases “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” along with her 2017 “Into You” album re-release and a Veterans Day video tribute.
