“Over the last six years, Jamie has been a true champion of our entire roster, always striving to see them supported in their calling and recognized for each of their amazing talents,” shares Holly Zabka, President of Provident Entertainment. “I am incredibly grateful for all she pours out to continue the growth, legacy, and impact of Essential Music Publishing.”
Made New, the second full-length studio recording from acclaimed singer/songwriter Justin Gambino, is set to release August 25. Tracing his prodigal years and the abounding grace and mercy Gambino embraced when he finally returned to the Father, Made New was produced by Nashville-based session player and producer Walter Halliwell.
An autobiographical collection of emotive pop anthems and vulnerable ballads, Made New features 13 selections all written or co-penned by Gambino. Lead single “Fighting On My Behalf,” a percolating, synth-infused pop track available on digital platforms July 28, is Gambino’s personal testimony to God’s steadfast love and care.
“As an artist who desires to reach and encourage people in their own journey, it can be quite exhausting out on the road,” he says of the inspiration behind “Fighting On My Behalf.” “Touring will always come with opposition and setbacks, but it’s so important to press on and remember Who goes before me. Exodus 14:14 says, ‘The Lordwill fight for you; you need only to be still.’
At a time in my life when I was facing schedule changes, cancelled events and the loss of income, I needed to remind myself to be still and take heart that God was fighting for me.”
Additional highlights of Made New include “Mercy,” a modern psalm of gratitude available August 11 upon pre-order of the album; the poignant “A Father’s Heart,” a simple plea for God’s revelation amidst struggle and unbelief; “Bring Me Home,” the encapsulation of Gambino’s prodigal journey; and the album’s buoyant folk-rock opener, “Courage.”
“’Courage’ was inspired by all the people who have encouraged me on this journey, and I hope it encourages them in return,” Gambino shares. “The only way I can continue each day is to look to the One who breathes His very breath into my lungs. He keeps me from letting go or losing hope. My prayer for this song is that it will be an anthem for those who need that reminder as well.”
Gambino is showcasing selections from the forthcoming recording during his “Made New” headlining tour, which kicked off earlier this week in Vernon, Texas. The multi-city Southwest and Pacific Northwest outing is slated to stop in Carlsbad, New Mexico; Idaho Falls, Idaho; Yreka, California; and Vantage, Washington, among other cities this summer and fall.
Following the release of 4 new singles on the playlist including Childlike CiCi, Wande, Limoblaze, and more, Reach Records follows up a third week with three further singles from DKG KIE, Jaye Newton, Richdanfamous, and Lecrae: “Back Home” with DKG KIE and Lecrae, Blessings from Jaye Newton and Richdanfamous, and Extra from Lecrae.
This is the third of four consecutive Wednesdays that Reach Records is releasing new singles for this year’s Summer 23 Playlist! Stay in the loop on what new singles are dropping weekly every Monday on Reach Records socials.
“Extra” is a seemingly lighthearted yet topically introspective single produced by Juberlee. Lecrae kicks off the third week of the playlist with this high-energy west coast bop speaking to his upbringing on the west coast and how the culture influenced him.
“Back Home” is heavily inspired by Detroit rap seeing DKG KIE team up with Lecrae for the first time to talk about the meaning of home. DKG, short for “Demon Killer Gang,” is based in Detroit and known for owning the Detroit style, marked by a more aggressive tone and honest intellect, in the Christian Hip Hop space.
Opening with familiar gospel organs and quickly transitioning into unapologetic raps from DKG and Lecrae, this record stands out from the rest on this year’s Summer Playlist.

Singer-songwriter Matthew Hawk releases his latest single, Forever, to all platforms and various radio formats.
“This song makes me happy.” These are the exact words from the first few people who heard this song, including the backup singer. I bet it makes you happy, too.
It’s ironic, because this song was written during a time of deep sadness.This song came out of a prayer during a very dark time. The Bible tells us to be thankful—and Hawk heard God encouraging him to give God praise. “Here I am with a grateful heart / I bow down to worship you, Lord/ And I – I’ll love you forever…”
In his head, Matthew Hawk heard a slower, melancholic, more emotional version musically, and yet, as he played it on the guitar for the first time, his guitar seemed to have a mind of its own.
The sound created is Joy. And it’s what this song brings. Add in tight harmonies, banjo, and mandolin to the classic lineup of drums, guitars, and keys, FOREVER is a song that lifts your spirit and makes you want to praise Jesus with a skip in your step and a smile on your face. It’s a song that reaches all generations.
Hawk appeared playing guitar and/or singing on films such as Pitch Perfect 3, The Change Up, Boy Erased, What to Expect When You’re Expecting, Come Sunday, A Question of Faith, and the television shows, The Vampire Diaries, The Baker and the Beauty, American Soul, and Atlanta Liveamong others. He also doubled in multiple films for famous actors Jason Bateman, Adam Sandler, Jon Hamm, Ed Helms, Mel Gibson, Theo James, and many more, flew the Gemini 8 in the film First Man, and doubled for Finnick in the Hunger Games Trilogy.
But his greatest film accomplishment was probably saving Jennifer Lawrence’s life (true story! She thought tuna casserole was Mac and cheese.)
Hawk was nominated for three Native American Music Awards and his music video, Coming Home, won an award at the Emerald Coast Film Festival. Matthew Hawk is a songwriter who can’t help but to praise the King. “There’s nothing I enjoy more than drawing people into the presence of God, but it’s more than just leading worship on Sunday mornings. It’s a deep desire to write songs for His glory–songs that speak and touch and heal. Songs that draw people to the Father. Songs that are alive and full of His presence and purpose. Songs that meet people in their brokenness and journeys with them to Jesus,” says Hawk.
Forever is the latest single from Matthew Hawk’s upcoming album, Sing for the King, available August 28th.
