David Dunn “Star” EP Review

Christmas songs have such gorgeous melodies that it is easy to sing them in auto-pilot mode. And because the tunes already have such alluring prowess, many artists have adopted a sloppiness in making a festive record. Hence, many Christmas records are nothing more than professional karaoke. This is not so with David Dunn.

Crowder “I Know a Ghost” Album Review

Crowder continues the genre-bending direction with "I Know a Ghost." This record is a melting pot of an array of diverse sounds from nu-folk, rock, African native chants, country, EDM, bluegrass and pop.

CeCe Winans “Something’s Happening! A Christmas Album” Album Review

Beautiful is an understated description of CeCe Winans' latest Christmas album. Just like the theatrical sounds of a Disney movie soundtrack, this album is nothing short of stunning.

Sean Feucht “Wild” Album Review

Bethel Music's Sean Feucht's "Wild" is described as a missionally-inspired endeavor. Whilst many worship records are mostly centered around God and the local church, Feucht takes a further step in crafting songs detailing God's overarching salvific plan for the world ( "Till The Whole Earth Looks Like Heaven"), God's love for refugees ("Still Will I Love"), and how God motivates us to be his heart and hands ("Heart and Hands").

Ben and Noelle Kilgore “A Resting Place” EP Review

Some worship records are loud, rock-oriented and grandiose. Whilst others are contemplative, reflective and soulful. Ben and Noelle Kilgore's debut EP for Integrity Music falls into the latter category.

Francesca Battistelli “Own It” Album Review

When Francesca Battistelli first hit the airwaves in 2008, she was a breed of her own. Her girl-next-door quirkiness makes her lyrics sound like homespun slogans that ring in our heads even after the song is over.

Josh Turner “I Serve a Savior” Album Review

Alan Jackson, Alabama and Randy Travis have all taken spiritual detours at various stages of their careers before. They have all released Christian albums. For all three stalwarts, such excursions have been handsomely rewarded with #1 albums both on the country and Christian album charts. And for Randy Travis such a diversion has even revitalised his fledging career when his Christian-themed single "Three Wooden Crosses" became his first country #1 record in years.

Matthew Parker “Daydreamer” Album Review

EDM was what first brought Matthew Parker to the dance. Cutting his teeth as an ace remixer for Capital Kings, Lecrae and Jonathan Thulin, Parker has been a wiz as far as electronic music is concerned. At the tender age of only 24, Parker has not one of the most sort after remixer.

Darlene Zschech & HopeUC “The Table: A Christmas Worship Gathering” Album Review

The album cover of Darlene Zschech's new Christmas album is most telling. There's no snow-covered mistletoes; there's no picture of Zschech cozying up by a fireplace; and thank goodness there's no pic of dear old Saint Nick. Darlene Zschech has wisely savaged Christmas music from the North American stereo typing and hijacking.
