ELEVATION RHYTHM’s sophomore album, This Is The Gospel, is out now. The seven-song project follows the group’s debut album, Growing Pains, which was released in 2022.

ELEVATION RHYTHM might be the sound for the next generation, but the collective is rooted in far more than trendy sonics.

With this new album, they get back to the basics, laying out the plain truth for a world desperate for something to believe in. Click here to listen to the entire project. The group also releases the live performance video for the title track today at 11AM ET on YouTube.

“I think there’s this beautiful relationship between ELEVATION RHYTHM and the next generation,” shares Josh Holiday of ELEVATION RHYTHM. “We are on the same journey, asking the same questions and doing it together. ELEVATION RHYTHM is more of a cultural movement. It’s a spirit that we all carry. It’s the unity, it’s the love, it’s the heart for these songs, and this album is what we’ll always be about.”

Birthed out of the church’s high-energy Wednesday night youth gatherings, ELEVATION RHYTHM is a group made up of a revolving reserve of diverse songwriters, creatives, and guest artists. In a single-driven society, This Is The Gospel, is meant to be consumed in its entirety simply because highlights what it looks like to place your faith in Jesus throughout the whole album.

ELEVATION RHYTHM continues to hit the road this spring for Lecrae’s “The Final Church Clothes Tour” and on Elevation Nights with their sister collective Elevation Worship and their pastor Steven Furtick. You can find a full list of travel dates for ELEVATION RHYTHM here.

This Is The Gospel – Elevation Rhythm

ELEVATION RHYTHM introduces a new song, “You Will Be Saved,” available at all DSPs (listen here). This song and the previously released “PRAISES,” will both appear on the sophomore album, This Is the Gospel, which will release on April 14th. The upcoming release is available for pre-add/pre-save here. The group’s new seven-track collection follows ELEVATION RHYTHM’s first full-length offering, Growing Pains. But unlike their emotionally-focused debut, This Is The Gospel is not only a work of art but a testament to faith.

“I felt this call and this responsibility to say, ‘OK, if the next generation needs a foundation for their faith, what does that foundation look like? What is the Gospel? What are the pillars? What is the truth?,” shares ELEVATION RHYTHM’s lead architect and primary producer, Josh Holiday. “I just knew this next album had to be truth-centered, and I wanted to create music that was going to be foundational for this next generation in their faith journey.”

The new track that dropped today is a straightforward opus and a simple invitation of salvation. In addition to the song being available, the live performance video is available now below.

Holiday continues, “Knowing Jesus as a Savior is so humbling. I never want to get to a place where I feel like I don’t need saving. I never want to live that lie. This song isn’t just a salvation call for sinners. We all need to be saved. It’s for the lost — for the one — but it’s also to remind the 99, hey, don’t ever think you don’t need a Savior.”

Repentance. Salvation. Sanctification. Wrapped in timeless melodies, these essential tenets of faith are all presented in an elementary manner on This Is The Gospel with ELEVATION RHYTHM declaring: This is what we believe.

Josh Holiday, ELEVATION RHYTHM’s lead architect and primary producer, shares, “The first time we sang ‘PRAISES,’ our youth just really connected to it. No matter where ELEVATION RHYTHM goes, our DNA and who we are at the core is this bold, energetic, sometimes edgy, sound. We enter His courts with praise. So we wanted to just start with praise.”
