Singer, songwriter and worship leader Patrick Mayberry released his Holy Spirit Come EP last year from Centricity Music. Available at digital and streaming outlets globally, the 6-song recording features the Air1– and Worship Leader-premiered title track, lead single “Breakthrough Miracle Power” and more songs steeped in community with language meant to inspire a wide spectrum of worshippers to join in a heavenward chorus.

“All of these songs have been written for the people of the church!” exclaims Mayberry. “I pray that they meet people right where they are in their journey with faith and the Lord…that they would continue to shape and transform how they view themselves and God while pointing to how God views them – as His kids who He’s crazy about!”

With the title track, “Holy Spirit Come,” Mayberry also reminds Christians that “…we can call on the Holy Spirit as our counselor, our healer, our deliverer. Imagine what our lives, our families, our churches would be like if we continually lived with that in the forefront of our minds and hearts! I pray this song is an anthem for our churches that would flow to every inch of our lives!”

GRAMMY Award-winning songwriter, producer and critically-acclaimed artist Brooke Ligertwood drops her live solo album “SEVEN” which is now available.

After six mainstream albums with Sony Music under maiden name “Brooke Fraser” and in parallel, 17 years with Hillsong Worship, which she still currently leads globally, Ligertwood is combining her two decades of experience as an artist/producer and her passion for serving the church with her new solo offering under Capitol CMG.

Recorded live in Nashville, TN, “SEVEN” consists of entirely brand-new worship songs written by Ligertwood and husband/longtime collaborator Scott, Jason Ingram (who co-produced the album with her), Pastor Steven Furtick, Brandon Lake, Phil Wickham and friends. It features a band composed of gifted musicians from the breadth of the modern worship movement (Hillsong, Bethel, Vineyard, Elevation), a 30-piece choir, and a collection of stunning new prayer-soaked songs written and arranged in line with Ligertwood’s singular vision with Jesus at the center.

“Nineveh” follows on the heels of “A Thousand Hallelujahs” which continues to impact audiences around the world. The debut single from “SEVEN” has amassed over 1.7M global streams in just two weeks since release. Already No. 2 on Multitrack’s Top Songs chart, the live performance video has also garnered more than 645K views to date.

Last month, Ricky Dillard – the “legend in his own right” (Flaunt Mag) – shared his newest album and sophomore release with Motown Gospel, Breakthrough: The Exodus. Accompanied with live recordings and video performances for each song, Dillard and his New Generation Chorale deliver breathtaking harmonies and dynamic range.

In 2020, Dillard released the Grammy nominated album Choirmaster, which he views as a “part one” of Breakthrough; he even goes on to describe the two releases as Sunday Morning and Sunday Evening recordings respectively. Having been a source of inspiration for artists ranging from Kirk Franklin to Kanye West, Breakthrough: The Exodus is Dillard’s latest and most thrilling chapter in a career that spans thirty years.

Multi-talented singer songwriter Blessing Offor releases his debut EP, Brighter Days today via Chris Tomlin’s Bowyer & Bow imprint in partnership with Universal/Capitol Christian Music Group. Filled with thought-provoking lyrics alongside Blessing’s powerful voice and expert musicianship, Brighter Days is full of infectious optimism that jumps right out of the speaker. Blessing’s ability to bring emotion to life is apparent, and each song acts as a window into Blessing’s extraordinary make-up.

The youngest of six siblings, the Nigerian-born singer/songwriter immigrated to the United States with his uncle at the age of six. Born blind in one eye, Blessing’s parents sent him to the United States in an effort to restore his vision, though unfortunately, he lost his complete eyesight by age 10. Gravitating towards the piano before losing his vision, Blessing’s school teachers helped nurture his talent, and he soon found himself at Belmont University honing his craft in Music City. Hints of pop, Motown, and soul flourish across Blessing’s music as he sings of optimism, hope, and finding silver linings in dark clouds.

This week, BEC Recordings duo Lion & Bear shared the official video for “Cling,” which can be viewed below. The track is from the duo’s 2021 album titled Hollows. The Hollows album is available now to download or stream.

Lion & Bear is from Southern California. The friends from childhood, Andrew Enos and Michael Landingham, both experienced devastating losses of children followed by a stark realization: most people don’t know how to grieve. They fashioned the band from the ashes of their anguish in an effort to find healing and share that healing with others. Lion & Bear, a moniker inspired by the Bible’s King David, is an emblem of hope for the weary proclaiming this truth: pain is messy and uncomfortable, but if you go to the depths of your humanity, God will be there.

 Multi-award-winning and platinum-selling artist UNITED announced the release of their official video for “On Repeat,” which can be viewed below. The track features songwriters Joel Houston, Ben Fielding, Benjamin Hastings, and Aodhan King, and is a powerful anthem that proclaims the goodness of God and His faithfulness to us.

With a driving melody that begins as a ballad and soars into a declaration of praise, the new track is an invitation for listeners to set aside personal ambition, revel in the glory and grace of God and His unconditional love for us and give Him the continuous praise and honor He deserves. “So I’m gonna lay my world down/Here at Your feet/Look to the heavens/For all I need/I’m gonna sing my heart out/Praise on repeat/To the God who’s never given up on me.”

“The simplicity of the Gospel works itself out daily in tangible and significant ways,” says UNITED’s Joel Houston. “In our lives there’s a parallel of grace being on repeat, and then praise being on repeat as our response to God’s grace. It’s so simple yet profound and encourages me to believe that God’s going to give me the grace, so I’m going to give Him the praise knowing that He’s going to give me the grace again. I think that’s true for anybody anywhere, regardless of their story, what season they’re in, or how life looks like – and I pray it never gets lost on us.”

Look for UNITED this spring with Chris Tomlin on the long-awaited 2022 co-headline Tomlin UNITED 2022 Tour. The multi-city circuit will make stops in major markets in the U.S. including Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, Dallas and Miami, among others. Anticipated to be the biggest Christian music tour of the year, the Tomlin UNITED Tour will welcome thousands of fans each night to worship together and experience songs that have shaped modern faith today.

Nigerian recording artiste and singer-songwriter, Ine is out with a brand new single titled “GRACE,” available today on all major digital platforms. The song is an acknowledgment and testimony of God’s overwhelming grace in her life.

According to Ine, “GRACE,” a piece very special to her, was initially penned to be delivered as a spoken words poetry. “I wrote this song during one of the most challenging times of my life. It was inspired by the Holy Spirit,” she revealed, “God’s grace found me and I decided to record it as a song.”

Ine is a gospel recording artiste, songwriter, and minister who hails from Bonny in Rivers State, Nigeria. A few of her songwritings were inspired by the teachings of her mentor and pastor, Pastor Chris Ugoh of Kings Assembly, Port-Harcourt. According to the singer, she had always wanted to sing as a child but lacked the confidence until she met Jazzsari, a vocal coach who helped and encouraged her to pursue her dreams.

Other amazing singles released together with Grace are Oputamuno (“Ópú támûnó”) and “Yahweh,” which are also available to download/stream across all major digital platforms. She hopes that through her music, many will glorify God and that souls will be won for Christ.
