[Download] First Love – Lucy Grimble

Lucy Grimble releases her new single, “First Love.” Inspired by a spontaneous refrain that came during a worship night at her local church in South West England, the new song was then recorded live in her home with friends from the area. In fact, the importance of local community and place is core to the creation of this song and the project it announces.

“First Love” is about the heart of the gospel being a love story and brings listeners on a journey of being awakened to God’s love and responding to it with devotion and adoration. Grimble felt drawn back to contemplate the simplicity of Love and how transforming it is.

“This song is my simple attempt to capture the two way love story between God and us and to dwell for a few moments in the beauty of that relationship,” Grimble explained. Written alongside local duo Fieldlily, the single captures a sense of rootedness with its stripped-back feel, layered vocals, and folk undertones.

“Musically, the vocals are really key as this was written as a three-part harmony piece, something that again reflects that sense of interdependence and interrelationship.” “First Love” is a gentle invitation to discover, rediscover, or remember the simplicity of the gospel message: that God is love and is wholly motivated by love for his people. Grimble created a soundscape for people to receive and reflect God’s love back to him and to the world around them.

[Music] Resurrecting Reasons – Disciple Feat. Decyfer Down

In their acclaimed career spanning nearly three decades, veteran hard rockers Disciple have recorded 13 studio albums, earned 18  #1 singles, and sold hundreds of thousands of records. Their music has been featured on ESPN’s NFL Live, WWE, Fox Sports, as well as in commercials for CBS’ CSI: Miami and Criminal Minds.They’ve received multiple Dove Awards and played thousands of shows worldwide, including a 2023 stint in 40 arenas on the Winter Jam Tour.  

This year saw the band’s first Grammy nomination, receiving a nomination for Best Contemporary/Christian Performance Song of the Year for the track “Firm Foundation (He Won’t).”  A career first for Disciple, who has been a mainstay in the heavy Christian music genre, this distinction adds to a list of accolades and pays homage to the duality Disciple has always reconciled in their music: a high-adrenaline rock sound with a worshipful, gospel-first heart.

Now, hot off the heels of this historical accolade, Disciple is back with the upcoming single Resurrecting Reasons,” and video filmed in Nashville and directed by Joel Burris. The song/video features acclaimed Christian rockers Decyfer Down and premiered on Jesus Freak Hideout, ahead of the deluxe version of their 2023 album Skeleton Psalms, releasing April 25th. The deluxe album includes several unreleased singles, acoustic renditions, and studio mixes.

According to the band, “‘Resurrecting Reasons’ is a song born out of the discovery of God’s faithfulness in our darkest and most undeserving times.  The song musically hearkens back to a vintage Disciple sound, delivering a more organic offering to our fans.  For the deluxe edition we have sought out the talents of one of our favorite singers and longtime friend, TJ Harris from Decyfer Down as a featured vocalist.”

Skeleton Psalms was created in-house: produced by guitarist Josiah Prince at his studio The Ranch, written by Kevin Young, Andrew Stanton (guitar) and Josiah Prince, with drums from Joey West and additional backing vocal support from touring bassist Marco Pera.

For additional support on instrumentation, Mark “Traa” Daniels (P.O.D.) played bass. The band called on mix engineer Nick Rad (Skillet), mastering engineer Sam Moses (Tenth Avenue North) and the drum recording skills of Lester Estelle (Pillar, Kelly Clarkson) to round out the creative team. The album has spawned three #1 singles (“Executioner,” “Promise to Live” and “Bad Words”) and was a 2023 Dove Award nominee.

The veteran Christian rock band was originally formed by high school friends in Maryville, Tennessee in 1992. Just a teenager at the time, founder and frontman Kevin Young was inspired to follow in the footsteps of bands who shaped his own belief — acts like Petra, Stryper and Whitecross, Christian bands who were scandalizing listeners of the time even as secular acts like Pantera, Skid Row and Def Leppard easily ruled the mainstream airwaves.

“The Christian music scene was completely different back then,” Young recalls. “Most of what was played on the radio seemed tame in comparison to the influences of my childhood, particularly punk and hard rock. I wanted to write and sing music that sounded like my culture but that also carried a message and reflected my values.”

The result was Disciple, a name chosen initially as a simple placeholder to represent the band’s core mission to be followers of Jesus Christ in all things. That commitment drove them through early independent records and across the South, playing concerts as a three-piece band. By 1997, their dedication had landed them their first record deal. By 2001, they were releasing their third album and navigating the harrowing challenges of road life as their following grew.

Looking back on the band’s history, Young reflects, “It’s the call and the cost of being a disciple of Jesus: sometimes you’re going to have a lot, and sometimes you’re going to have a little. That doesn’t matter; we’re on a mission. I feel like that has been our life as a band.”

Currently, the band is a collective of musicians who have held the ferocious hard rock sound steady for over 10 years: Young on vocals, Josiah Prince on guitar, Andrew Stanton on guitar and Joey West on drums. The growth of their tightly knit musical cohesion is evident on their most recent album, Skeleton Psalms. From scorching riffs to thunderous drum fills to alternately melodic and searing vocals, Disciple is a band intimately familiar with their own toolkit while unafraid to push their own limits.

Every one of the longstanding members shares a sense of urgent calling that allows them to weather the storms of a changeable music landscape. In Disciple’s eyes, their mission of evangelism and hope eclipse any accolades that the band could earn. But their chronic drivenness prompted by adherence to the Gospel has consistently turned heads — and impacted lives.

In 2020, the band launched a second musical project as an outlet for their impulse to worship, a band titled Honor & Glory. That band would ultimately secure their first career Grammy nomination for “Firm Foundation (He Won’t).”

But beyond those quantifiable milestones, Disciple’s music has made its deepest mark through resonance with listeners struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, suicidality and self-harm. Their songs’ message of unconditional love meeting each of us at our most broken has inspired countless stories of lives saved and changed. Most recently, that has been evident through “Promise to Live,” which topped Christian rock radio charts for a staggering 16 weeks in a row.

“We all are in this world together, and are all in recovery together, from the trauma of this world and this life,” Young offers earnestly. “We’re not fighting alone. We’re fighting together. We make this promise to God and to each other: to not give up fighting. To not lose hope. To live for the most precious gift we have, which is life.”

That promise continues to galvanize the band well past the three-decade mark. Even with such storied staying power to their name, Disciple’s Kevin Young is quick to clarify the call that still lies before them.

With over 200k Spotify listeners, 250k followers across platforms, and 44 million and counting lifetime YouTube views, Disciple continues to show their relevance and profound impact on the heavy metal world. Stay tuned as Disciple releases content throughout 2025 alongside upcoming tour dates.

Jason Gray Releases “Nothing Is Wasted (Acoustic)”

Acclaimed Centricity Music singer/songwriter Jason Gray shares “Nothing is Wasted (Acoustic).”

“Nothing Is Wasted” is the second song from my forthcoming album of acoustic versions of my greatest hits! This song was my first number one—spending nine weeks at the top of the Inspo chart in 2013. The radio version we recorded has the distinction of being the first time you would’ve heard the voice of Lauren Daigle on the radio! She was a new artist at Centricity Music and we’d become friends at an artist retreat. I believed in her and was so glad to have her on my song. I’m not surprised at all that she became the global star she is today.

To borrow author Annie Dillard’s language, God’s order is a “spendthrift economy, where nothing is lost and all is spent.” Paul said it another way to the Romans when he said, “We know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God…” I’ve seen in my own life how even the worst troubles I’ve gone through produced some of the greatest lasting good, if only that they made me more compassionate towards others in their own trouble.

Nothing Is Wasted (Acoustic) – Jason Gray

“Everything happens for a reason” is a sentiment I’ve always wrestled with. It’s no comfort in the midst of tragedy and hard for me to reconcile against the heartbreaking realities of the world. War, human trafficking, cancer, betrayal–I can’t bring myself to believe that God wills the worst that happens to us. However, what I can believe, though, is that “nothing is wasted”–that no matter what happens, God can make something useful, sometimes even beautiful, out of it. Usually it’s you and me he’s making beautiful. We are the beauty he’s making from ashes.

Whereas the acoustic version of “Sparrows” had a lot of layers to it, it seemed to me the best way to present “Nothing Is Wasted” was as naked and vulnerable as possible. I wanted it to feel so tender and quiet that my singing would almost feel like a whisper. My son Kipper is one of my favorite piano players—I think his playing is so full of emotion!—and I’m moved by the heart he brought to this song. 

Gray recently launched his “BETTER TOGETHER: The Live Recording Tour” last week. The tour that is currently set to traverse 10 states and counting will feature Gray sharing acoustic performances filled with intimate and soul-stirring moments that highlight his profound lyrical artistry and heartfelt melodies.

Stripped down to acoustic arrangements, his songs take on a raw and authentic quality, encouraging listeners to connect deeply with the themes of hope, redemption and grace that permeate his music. Gray’s storytelling prowess shines through as he shares the personal stories and inspirations behind his songs, creating a captivating and uplifting atmosphere that resonates with audiences long after the performances end.
