StowTown Records is thrilled to announce the release of a brand new recording from multi-award-winning group, The Perrys. John 3:16 features this popular group at their very best, delivering powerful songs that have made them a mainstay in the Southern Gospel Music genre for more than four decades.
This latest recording features 10 songs with masterful production, powerful vocals and thought-provoking lyrics from several of gospel music’s most prolific writers, including Joel Lindsey, Wayne Haun, Joseph Habedank and Marcia Henry, just to name a few. In addition to the title cut and first single, “John 3:16 Is Calling Out to You,” co-written by Joel Lindsey and Val Dacus, other cuts include “I Think I’ll Just Go On,” “Heaven To Me” and the timeless classic, “That Sounds Like Home To Me,” written by legendary writers Eddie Crook and Aaron Wilburn. For The Perrys, the song that will be especially meaningful is “Calvary’s Touch,” which was penned by Karen McPherson and the late Kyla Rowland. Just before Kyla’s passing earlier this year, she gave this song to The Perrys for this album, and it may very well be the final new recording of a Kyla Rowland song.
Led by longtime group member, Libbi Perry Stuffle, The Perrys have enjoyed numerous honors and accolades, as well as dozens of radio hits. “It has been amazing to see how God has worked in the lives of Libbi and The Perrys over the years,” states StowTown Records President Landon Beene. “They have endured some very difficult times, but God has honored their faithfulness and their desire to always present the message of the Gospel. StowTown is delighted to have the privilege to present this project to listeners worldwide.”
John 3:16 offers listeners victory, encouragement and redemption, as well as the undeniable message of the saving power of Christ. “John 3:16 is probably the most well-known scripture in the world,” Libbi states. “We have never been ashamed to proclaim that message every time we step on stage. It’s ageless, and we will never grow tired of sharing it.”
For Libbi and The Perrys, it was a thrill to be back in the studio with the group’s longtime producer and friend, Wayne Haun. It was also thrilling to have the opportunity to record songs from several writers who have impacted their musical journey in a profound way. “With all the changes we have experienced over the past few years, we are truly blessed to be able to look back and find consistency,” Libbi shares. “Wayne is a longtime friend and producer and always pushes us to do our very best in the studio. He is also great with helping us find just the right songs. We were blessed to be able to include songs written by some very special friends who have afforded us the opportunity to deliver the eternal message that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16 is distributed by Provident/Sony and is available at digital and retail outlets worldwide.
The award-winning band Sanctus Real celebrates the recent RIAA Gold certification of their hit single “Confidence.” The song is from 2020’s Changed, their first full-length from the band’s indie label Framework Records, and features the group’s new lead vocalist Dustin Lolli.
On the heels of the success of “Confidence,” their single “Won’t Let Me Go” goes for adds at radio today. The song is also the title track on their latest five-song project, which was released on April 22. “Won’t Let Me Go” was produced and co-written with David Spencer (“In Jesus Name [God of Possible]” from Katy Nichole).
Chris Rohman, Sanctus Real’s guitarist, shares, “We’ve spent the last two years, as many have, wondering if we had taken for granted the sense of ‘normal’ we initially longed for in the midst of a worldwide pandemic. It didn’t take long for us to realize that nothing about this life is normal! There’s no hiding the fact that we live in a broken world and in that brokenness, we have always had an anchor through the good and the bad.”
He continues, “We wrote most of these new songs in response to seeing God’s faithfulness all around us during an incredibly difficult time. ‘Won’t Let Me Go’ is a statement of worship to our Savior, a profession that even in the darkest places, even when our faith is shaking, we know that God will never let us go. We’ve seen this to be true and we hope others can find solace in the simplicity of that statement as well.”
“Won’t Let Me Go” follows “My God Is Still The Same,” which held its spot on the Billboard Audience chart for more than 40 weeks, peaking at No. 2 while accumulating 13MM total streams.
Additionally, Sanctus Real wraps their latest tour this weekend in their home state of Ohio. Touring around the U.S. this spring with Stars Go Dim and Tim Timmons, Sanctus Real partnered with Destiny Rescue to help spread its message to everyone who was able to experience the tour.
“We are incredibly grateful to have a platform where we can share the heart behind an organization like Destiny Rescue,” the band shares collectively.
“The work they do helps to save, on average, seven victims a day from sex trafficking. In a world where there are roughly one million children trapped in this industry, we feel a desperate need to get the word out on how we as a community of believers can help. Destiny Rescue is making a huge impact for the Kingdom with the work they do by not only saving those forced into unspeakable circumstances but by providing education and Christian rehabilitation for those they rescue. As a band whose mission has been for more than 20 years to share about God’s goodness and redemption, it’s an honor to speak on behalf of this organization and allow our audience the opportunity to become rescue partners!” Find out more HERE.

The single follows the group’s Worship Leader-premiered “Come What May” single and is the second song to be revealed from its sophomore album set to release July 15.
Produced by GRAMMY Award-winning Stephen Blake Kanicka (Kanye West, for KING & COUNTRY, Danny Gokey) and mixed by David Cook (Chris Tomlin, Zach Williams, Shawn Mendes), “Revive Us” was written by Deshauwn Tagliareni, Providence Cordell and Mike Yeager in advance of Awaken Church’s “Revive” Awaken Conference to be held July 14-16.

This song serves as a declarative anthem to pray for and bring about that revival.”

Christian singer-songwriter Katy Weirich showcases strength amidst struggle in her newest release, “Blue Jay.” Singing about her experience with severe postpartum depression and anxiety after her second child, Weirich recalls a feeling of utter hopelessness.
“I was nearly hospitalized and was having panic attacks causing me to collapse and I longed to go to sleep and not wake up,” she explains. The song recounts her hardship as she pleads to God for a “glimpse of you.” As expected, God delivered, and never in the way she expected. After a lengthy period of time during her recovery she began to see blue jays at just the right time in her day-to-day activities that would give her a glimpse of strength and encouragement to persevere.
When on a trip in Scotland after her recovery, Weirich remembers seeing an entire flock of blue jays, which finally inspired her to write this song. She says the blue jays signified to her “a hug from God and a tangible reminder that He saw me where I was and that I just had to keep going and to trust that He was right there beside me and would not leave.” As Weirich gains strength, the song builds momentum. “You are carrying me, sustaining me. You are healing me, I will be free” she sings with rising confidence throughout the rest of the song.
In this way, “Blue Jays” is an authentic representation of the struggles of life and keeping the faith amidst darkness. Weirich doesn’t sugar coat the pain, but she also doesn’t discount the miracle. She shares that when she got back from her trip, she flipped to the next page on her calendar which had a photo from the exact place in Scotland she had just visited. “It was a sign to me that God had gotten me through. He never left me, not even for a minute,” she adds. Weaving both the story of the blue jays and scripture into the song, Weirich explains that a lot of inspiration came from Job and wanting to “showcase the quality of God” which is “El Roi,” meaning “the God who sees me.” “Blue Jay” is one single to come out as part of her upcoming EP Out of the Blue set to release June 17. “This song will forever remind me how I was carried and sustained by the Lord. I honestly don’t know if I’d be alive today if I didn’t know Jesus Christ.”
Singer-songwriter, Melanie Penn, releases another new song from her upcoming album, More Alive Vol. 2, today (May 20). “Peace” is the fifth song that Penn has released since January, with “The Story,” “Look Up,” “Just Jump,” and the original version of “The Melody” that are currently available on YouTube.
“Peace” is a soothing song that can center us during troubling times, with a piano intro that leads into Penn’s calming vocals. The song is about God’s eternal support even when we are facing sorrow and broken pieces in our lives. When the world is crumbling/I have your peace/My confidence in providence/Is keeping me from blowing in the breeze/All my security Is anchored in the promises you gave to me/That you are making all things new. The song was co-written by Penn and Ben Shive.
Penn will keep the new music flowing with upcoming videos in June and July, and a new announcement on Monday, May 23rd.
Artist/songwriter Stephen Stanley releases new music with his “Note To Self” collaboration with Riley Clemmons. The official audio can be heard below. Stanley released the original track in March of this year, coinciding with Mental Health Awareness Month. The new version of “Note To Self” is available now.
“I wrote this song as a letter of advice to my younger self, but I wanted it to be written in a way that could speak to me as a child, me a year ago, a month ago, or even yesterday,” Stanley shares. “The lessons are all still the same – hold on to faith, family, and love, and everything will be ok.”
