[Album] Set List Vol. 1 – Darwin Hobbs

Renowned vocalist Darwin Hobbs is making a highly anticipated return to music with the release of Set List Vol. 1 (HeartArt Music / Tyscot), his first album in 16 years. “It’s a grouping of songs that work well within a set list that any worship leader in the church can use,” he says.

The six-track, six-video digital album was produced by Hobbs alongside 20-year-old producer Jaden Baker (his grandmother is celebrated pastor Sheryl Brady) and millennial Rachel James. They bring a variety of influences and flavors to this sweeping set of elaborately orchestrated praise and worship songs that fuse the bigness of Elevation Worship with the dramatic heartiness of Shekinah Glory Ministry.

It opens with a beautiful instrumental entitled, “Overture” and then sets the atmosphere with a soulful cover of “Be Glorified,” a 1991 Ron Kenoly cut. “Ron Kenoly made it popular, and I always liked it and wanted to record it,” Hobbs says. “I’ve been singing it for 20 years. We spruced it up some and added a tag that I created.”

The live album was recorded at Elizabeth Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia. It’s a powerful suite of songs designed to lead congregations into heartfelt worship such as “I Command My Soul,” featuring the riveting vocals of Antavia Jackson; the triumphant congregational anthem “Hallelujah to the King,” co-written by Hobbs; and “Hallelujah (Praise Be to God).”

The album concludes with “All the Glory Is Yours,” written by Israel Houghton and featuring gospel powerhouse Latrice Pace, whose power and glory line from “The Lord’s Prayer” on the coda, provides a breathtaking climax to the recording. The project was captured before a passionate audience and has been divided into two separate album releases, beginning with Set List Vol. 1 which features six audio tracks and six music videos.

Although, he’s often called a worship leader, Hobbs rejects the concept. “I can’t lead worship,” he protests. “When we limit the idea of worship to music, we miss it. Worship isn’t just holding a microphone and singing songs. It’s how you live. I’m a song leader. I lead songs – not worship.” In the past, Hobbs was hailed as the “Luther Vandross of Gospel” for his distinctive vocal tone but for the last decade, he’s been devoted to Sunday morning church music. Over the course of that decade, he’s been mentoring and training worship teams at prominent churches across the United States. He’s the Global Worship pastor for the New York-based Christian Cultural Center (CCC) fellowship that has campuses across the United States. “I oversee all of that for the church.”

Over the years, Hobbs’ signature hit, “He’s Able,” his duet “Nobody But Jesus” with Shirley Murdock and other songs have kept Hobbs’ voice on the minds and hearts of many. Now, Set List Vol. 1 promises to keep these songs on the hearts and minds of church music departments and congregations all over the world.

[Album] When You’re In The Room – Tiffany Hudson

Worship leader and songwriter Tiffany Hudson (Elevation Worship, ELEVATION RHYTHM) releases her new live worship album, When You’re In The Room.

Stream Full Album Below

Recorded live during Elevation Church’s Presence Nights, the ten-track project captures the atmosphere of extended evenings dedicated to worship, prayer, and God’s presence. Rather than recording in a traditional studio setting, Hudson chose to capture the songs in the same environment where they first came to life.

“This project was born out of a hunger for the presence of God,” Tiffany Hudson shares. “My prayer is that these songs help people encounter Jesus in a real and personal way. More than anything, I hope they create space for people to know Him.”

The album follows the recent releases of “Jesus The Only” featuring Davide Mutendji, “Room” featuring John Wilds, and “Fire In My Bones,” introducing listeners to a project centered on adoration, surrender, revival, and a deeper pursuit of Jesus. Additional guest appearances on the album include Leeland Mooring.

Stream & Enjoy

Designed to remove distractions and focus entirely on Christ, Presence Nights became the foundation for the project and its title. Recorded live in those gatherings, When You’re In The Room preserves moments of congregational worship, prayer, and devotion while inviting listeners into a deeper awareness of God’s presence.

“Why do people want to spend eternity with a God they don’t even know?” Hudson reflects. “We have this invitation right now to know Him. That’s my hope for every person who listens to this project.”

At its core, the project reflects the longing that has shaped Hudson’s life and ministry, an invitation not just to sing about God, but to truly know Him.

[Album] Voyage – Tree63

Internationally renowned, Dove Award — winning South African rock band Tree63 releases its eighth full-length album, VOYAGE, Just Music, a label of Next Music Group.

Stream Full Album Below

After more than a decade-long hiatus, Tree63 brings back its signature, faith-informed rock & roll with founding vocalist, songwriter and guitarist John Ellis at the helm joined by fellow voyagers Angus Warden (drummer) and Deon Knipe (bassist). The trio formed in 2024 following Ellis’s relocating to Cape Town from Durban and a season of teaching English, earning a Master of Arts degree and releasing a solo album.

“These 10 new songs on VOYAGE are notes on the journey, responses to conversations along the road, testaments of someone who survived the hazards of the journey and who is still walking,” reveals Ellis. “I never imagined I would write more Tree63 music after Land (2015), but I secretly hoped I would, because the voyage is never over and there are a lot of stories to tell.”

The newly formed trio began touring throughout South Africa and beyond with new songs organically beginning to develop. Eventually, Ellis had 30 songs to choose from when the opportunity to make a new record arrived. The final 10 tracks on VOYAGE reflect the perspective of an artist who has travelled through victories, disappointments, uncertainty and renewal.

“I am no longer a young believer, singing about the excitement of a life-changing spiritual discovery,” shares Ellis. “I am many miles and victories and defeats down the road. The young man who wrote ‘Look What You’ve Done’ in 1997 is now an adult with an adult’s set of experiences of what it means to walk in The Way.”

Produced by Ellis and renowned South African producer-engineer Dave Langemann at Creative Native Studios in Cape Town, VOYAGE was mastered by Tim Lengfeld at TL Mastering. The resulting album features the title track playing homage to a life built on faith while “Turn for Home” invites back the prodigal. “Ambush” is a song of how God can unexpectedly break into your life as “Fire Goes On” finds a flame of conviction still burning. The album concludes with “Beatitude,” a benediction that sums up the album and Tree63 in 2026.

With all songs written by Ellis, the full VOYAGE tracklisting follows:

01) Turn For Home

02) Ambush

03) Voyage

04) Fire Goes On

05) Believe Anyway

06) How Much Longer?

07) New Jerusalem

08) Seeker

09) Still There

10) Beatitude

About Tree63:

First formed in Durban in 1996, Tree63 is one of the most successful and beloved musical exports in South African music history. Led by singer, songwriter and guitarist John Ellis, the band came to international attention with the release of their second album 63 (Survivor Records) in 1999. The three-piece band followed 63 in 2000 with its self-titled release on US-based InPop Records, which sparked the radio hits “Treasure” and “Look What You’ve Done.” Picking up a Dove Award that year for Rock Album of the Year, the band went on to record five more critically acclaimed albums and release numerous radio singles, including the No. 1 hit and Billboard’s most played Christian Song Of The Year in 2004, “Blessed Be Your Name,” and the ASCAP Song of the Year, “King,” both from 2004’s The Answer To The Question.

Disbanded when John moved back to South Africa from Nashville in 2009, the band reconvened briefly for 2015’s Land, which was CCM Magazine’s Album of the Year while NewReleaseToday said the album is “a voyage well worth taking.” A hiatus followed during which John released three more solo albums.

Touring extensively over the years, Tree63 made numerous appearances with the Billy Graham Evangelical Association, headlined Canada’s multi-denominational Christian youth conference events and more. Performing throughout the US, UK, Canada, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Holland, Zimbabwe, Australia and New Zealand, Ellis brought Tree63 back to the live arena with a stellar new lineup in 2025 featuring Deon Knipe (bass guitar and backing vocals) and Angus Warden (drums and backing vocals). The reformed trio, complete with Ellis on lead vocals and guitars, organically began to write and record new music late last year for the long-awaited album, VOYAGE.

Ittells a story of learning to trust God through the valleys and hold tightly to His promises when the way forward isn’t clear.

Says Harrison, “My wife and I wrote My Honor To Need You together in our apartment in Manhattan after a conversation about dependence on the Lord. We were reflecting on how often we try to present ourselves as strong and self-sufficient, as though we have everything together. Yet God delights when we come to Him honestly and authentically, bringing our weakness before Him. It’s in that place of surrender and dependence that He reveals His strength and reminds us that we were never meant to carry life on our own.”

Featuring guest artists Gable Price, David Funk, and Aubree Archibeck, and including “My Honor To Need You (Live)” written with his wife Carling, DO NOT GO GENTLE is a hopeful invitation into a story of faith, endurance, and the unwavering presence of God in every season.

The Malpass Brothers Honor the Songs That Shaped Them on New Gaither Music Group Release Satisfied: Country Gospel Classics

The Malpass Brothers, country music duo Chris and Taylor Malpass, today release Satisfied: Country Gospel Classics, a new live album and DVD collection celebrating the country gospel songs that have influenced their lives, careers, and musical journey. Available now through Gaither Music Group, the project brings together beloved hymns, gospel standards, and faith-filled favorites performed in the duo’s signature traditional style.

Stream Full Album Below

Filmed live at TBN Studios in Hendersonville, Tennessee, Satisfied: Country Gospel Classics captures The Malpass Brothers performing songs that have long been part of their personal and musical foundation. The collection includes previously released tracks “Satisfied” and “He Touched Me,” along with focus track “The Lighthouse,” Ronnie Hinson’s enduring gospel classic that continues to resonate with listeners through its message of faith, hope, and perseverance.

Watch the performance video for “The Lighthouse,” which premiered on GodTube, here:

“We’ve been carrying these songs around with us for a long time,” said The Malpass Brothers. “Some of them we’ve sung on stage for years, some we grew up hearing at church and at home, and all of them mean something to us. Getting to finally put them together on one project and record them live felt like the right way to tell that story.”

Known for their deep-rooted traditional style, The Malpass Brothers grew up in Goldsboro, North Carolina, immersed in the sounds of country and gospel music from an early age. Inspired by their grandfather’s record collection and the artists who shaped the genre, the brothers have built a career on carrying those traditions forward with authenticity and respect.

“Chris and Taylor have a deep respect for the traditions that shaped country and gospel music, and they bring that to life every time they step on stage,” said Paul Sizelove, President of Sun Label Group and Gaither Music Group. “This project captures that authenticity in a powerful way, and we’re proud to partner with them in sharing it with audiences everywhere.”

Backed by a seasoned band, Satisfied: Country Gospel Classics showcases the warmth, simplicity, and reverence that have become hallmarks of The Malpass Brothers’ sound while highlighting the enduring influence of gospel music on traditional country artists and audiences alike.

Last month, The Malpass Brothers were honored by their hometown of Goldsboro, North Carolina, with an official proclamation presented by Mayor Charles Gaylor IV recognizing the duo’s dedication to country music and their continued efforts to bring national attention and pride to their community. The duo was also surprised backstage at the Grand Ole Opry with the announcement that The Paramount Theatre in Goldsboro will name its annex after The Malpass Brothers later this year.

Raised on the timeless sounds of classic country music, The Malpass Brothers drew early inspiration from legendary harmony duos before later being mentored by steel guitar icon Don Helms. The brothers spent seven years opening for Merle Haggard, who also produced their debut album, Memory That Bad. They later continued that tradition-focused approach through projects with Bluegrass Hall of Famer Doyle Lawson.

Satisfied: Country Gospel Classics is available as an audio album, full-length DVD, and television special. The television special will air on TBN, RFD-TV, The Word Network, Vision, TCT, The Walk TV, TLN, HopeTV, The Miracle Channel, CTS, CTN, and Heartland.

The full-length project is also available to stream at Gaither TV+, or fans may purchase the DVD and CD at Gaither.com.

[Album] Forever Now – Switchfoot

Nearly three decades into a career defined by fearless creativity and enduring impact, GRAMMY-winning rock band Switchfoot continues to reach new heights musically with the release of their highly anticipated new album, Forever Now. Produced by longtime collaborator and accomplished producer Mike Elizondo and recorded largely in part at Elizondo’s Phantom Studios on the outskirts of Nashville, Forever Now is the most thematic and narrative-driven album of Switchfoot’s already storied career, spanning 13 tracks that are both sonically and lyrically provocative.

“So much of our human experience is centered around control,” Jon Foreman, lead vocalist and founding member of Switchfoot, said. “The beauty of the medium of music is that when you release an album, you’re relinquishing control. I think that can be a frightening thing. It can be misinterpreted or misunderstood. But my hope is to embrace this next season as if the record was made by a 14-year-old who just picked up the guitar and started playing Led Zeppelin. To have that same joy.”

Bookended by the fiery opening track “Wake Up, Mr. Crow” – which was released back in March – and the tantalizing closer, “The Butterfly Effect,” the band’s 14th full-length studio LP centers on the emotional roller coaster of a person’s final day on Earth, and more specifically, the questions one might ask themselves if confronted with the harsh but potentially enlightening reality.

The band drew inspiration from some of the world’s most notable novelists such as Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoevsky for the album’s throughline, specifically their ability to live through their characters as opposed to being confined to their personal reality.

Forever Now – Switchfoot

“It feels like the modern musical experience is ‘If it didn’t happen to you, you shouldn’t be singing about it,'” explains Jon Foreman. “When I read Dostoevsky, I’m reminded that all those characters, they are him, those are his inner voices fighting it out. That was a big revelatory moment for me — to be able to say ‘Why couldn’t I do that in a song? Why couldn’t I have this same representation and drama with characters in a song?'”

One of alternative rock’s most celebrated acts, the California-bred band channels the spirit that first inspired them to pick up guitars, delivering their boldest and most guitar-driven collection to date. Calling it a homecoming of sorts to return to playing loud, the band chose to embrace “big hooks, big guitars and big themes.” The album’s lead single “Absolution” reflects this spirit, currently impacting Alternative radio, while the classic “Switchfoot sound” is captured in standout track “Beautiful Life.” Both songs are intense vehicles for self-reflection about the breadth and quality of one’s life.

Earlier this week, the band was invited to make their Grand Ole Opry debut on July 23 in Nashville, returning to the city w here the majority of the album was recorded. The surprise was made extra special by longtime friends, the Jonas Brothers, sharing the news with Switchfoot during their recent appearance on the iHeartPodcast “Hey Jonas!,” out now on the iHeartRadio app and anyw here podcasts are heard. Watch the episode here.

In addition to their Opry debut next month, the band will take their captivating live show to fans across the country this fall on their headlining Forever Now Tour with special guest Anberlin. Named after the new record, the tour will hit 38 cities with stops in major markets like Los Angeles, Chicago, Nashville and more. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased here.

In addition to the fall tour, Switchfoot recently hosted their annual Bro-Am Beach Fest, raising over $300,000 for the Switchfoot Bro-Am Foundation, which is dedicated to giving back to the local community by heightening the profile of and providing grants to nonprofit organizations that support services to unhoused, at-risk and disadvantaged youth, with a special focus on programs related to music, art and surfing.

Grace in the Silence: CattSue’s “A Whisper on the Wind” Is a Testimony of Love That Endures

In a culture that often treats grief as something to be conquered, fixed, or forgotten, CattSue’s “A Whisper on the Wind” offers a different perspective—one rooted in remembrance, hope, and the enduring power of love. While not explicitly a Christian song, it resonates deeply with Christian themes of faith, comfort, and the belief that earthly separation is not the end of the story.

Inspired by the loss of her mother at the age of four and a half, CattSue has created a deeply personal tribute that speaks to anyone who has experienced the pain of saying goodbye too soon. Yet what makes the song remarkable is not merely its sadness. It is its hope.

From the opening verse, listeners are invited into the world of a little girl trying to make sense of something beyond her understanding. The image of carrying a Mrs. Beasley doll everywhere after her mother’s passing is heartbreakingly innocent. It reminds us that children often cling to simple things when life becomes overwhelming. Rather than dramatizing her pain, CattSue tells her story with humility and honesty, allowing the emotion to emerge naturally.

Musically, “A Whisper on the Wind” is gentle and reflective. The arrangement avoids unnecessary distractions, giving the lyrics room to breathe. Acoustic textures and warm melodies create an atmosphere of peace, almost like a quiet conversation between heaven and earth. The production never overwhelms the message, which is exactly as it should be.

CattSue’s vocal performance is equally effective. There is no attempt to impress listeners with vocal acrobatics. Instead, she sings with sincerity and conviction. Her voice carries the weight of lived experience, and that authenticity becomes one of the song’s greatest strengths.

Grace in the Silence: CattSue’s “A Whisper on the Wind” Is a Testimony of Love That Endures

Stream & Enjoy

The chorus captures the heart of the song:

“You’re my beautiful angel
Watching from above
I only had a little time
But it was enough.”

Those words reflect a perspective that many believers will recognize. While grief remains real, there is also gratitude. The song acknowledges loss without surrendering to despair. It embraces the idea that love continues beyond death—a truth that has comforted Christians for generations.

Perhaps the most powerful moment arrives during the bridge. CattSue confesses that she can no longer remember her mother’s voice or the way she used to say her name. It is a devastating realization, one that many people who have lost loved ones can understand. Time often dims details we desperately wish we could preserve.

Yet rather than remaining in sorrow, the song turns toward encouragement. CattSue imagines her mother speaking words she believes she would say today: “My girl, I’m proud of you—go chase your dreams.”

From a Christian perspective, this moment feels especially meaningful. Scripture often reminds believers that God comforts the brokenhearted and that love never truly fails. While the song does not attempt to define exactly how heaven interacts with earth, it beautifully captures the hope that those we love remain part of our story, even when we can no longer see them.

The title itself, “A Whisper on the Wind,” evokes the gentle ways God often brings comfort—not through dramatic signs, but through quiet reminders, cherished memories, and moments of unexpected peace. Anyone who has ever sensed the presence of a loved one through a memory, a familiar scent, a song, or a sudden feeling of reassurance will recognize the sentiment.

Following the chart success of her debut single, “Come Home to Me,” CattSue continues to establish herself as an artist whose greatest gift is emotional honesty. She writes not to impress but to connect, and that connection is what makes this song so powerful.

“A Whisper on the Wind” is ultimately more than a tribute to a mother. It is a testament to the enduring nature of love, the healing power of memory, and the hope that sustains us through life’s deepest losses. In a world hungry for authenticity, CattSue delivers a song that comforts, uplifts, and reminds listeners that even in grief, grace can still be found.

🎵 Song Spotlight

“Rahama (Live)” is more than a worship song. It is a prayer.

Through simple yet profound lyrics, Kaestrings leads worshippers into a reflection on humanity’s need for God’s compassion and grace. The song’s live atmosphere adds emotional depth, allowing listeners to experience the raw authenticity of a congregation collectively crying out for divine mercy.

Known for crafting worship experiences that emphasize intimacy with God rather than performance, Kaestrings once again demonstrates his ability to create music that ministers beyond melody.

Why This Song Matters

In a culture that often celebrates self-sufficiency and personal achievement, “Rahama (Live)” offers a countercultural message: we all need God’s mercy.

🎙️ Why We’re Listening

Many worship songs celebrate God’s power, victory, and blessings. “Rahama (Live)” takes a different path.

Instead of focusing on what God gives, it focuses on who God is: a merciful Father. In an age of fast-paced worship trends, Kaestrings offers a refreshing return to reverence, reminding listeners that mercy remains one of the greatest gifts available to the believer.
