Nash Revival Duo Releases Eleven Songs Over Two Months Including Award Winning “I Do”
New Christian duo Nash Revival (Matthew Soileau and Brandon Chase) has released eleven songs in the last two months including their CMT/Nashville Songwriter’s Association award winner, “I Do.” The official audio for “I Do” can be heard below.
Nash Revival has won several Nashville awards and garnered pitches to CCM artists and TV and movies prior to independently releasing their music. But the most rewarding part of songwriting for Soileau has been when the songs touch someone’s heart. He stated, “A family member cried when listening to So Help Me God (an award winner) due to the trials she had gone through in her life. Another friend told me that The Strength of the Weak and When I Say Father gave him chills. This is the best affirmation I could get for what I truly believe God has put in my life and called me to do. I hope these songs can assist a positive, faith-filled response to the trials of life. I want people to come to our music for spiritual uplifting and even contemplation and prayer.”
Soileau described his journey to songwriting, “I was looking everywhere and searching for a new career that would realize the full potential of my God-given gifts through sixteen years of working in the healthcare industry at that time. I truly believe God found me and gave me a message through another person. I initially started songwriting as a joke with a fellow employee but later realized I could really write. It was natural to write Christian songs along with Country songs because I had been listening to CCM for over twenty years due to a hunger for spiritual music outside of church on the weekend.”
Soileau, lyricist, was introduced to songwriting later in life by a patient at his physical therapy clinic. He was always searching for what God wanted him to do since he didn’t feel like therapy was his final destination. Five years after his patient introduced him to the CMT/NSAI song contest he won it with the help of co-writer and vocalist Chase. Chase has his own history in the industry with a former stint on The Voice, Team Blake and currently singing with the break-out Christian band, I Am They. Soileau is originally from Louisiana but now resides in Spring, Texas with his wife and three kids. Chase is from Fort Worth but now lives outside of Nashville.
Nash Revival’s music is available now on Amazon Music, Apple Music, and Spotify.
