Ian Yates

Martin Smith (Delirious?)
On paper it should never really have made sense: Delirious? should never have got as far as they did. No band had that came before them had ever made so much noise in churches. No Christians had talked so openly about their faith in clubs and media for quite some time. No one had...
Ben Cantelon
It's a struggle, all right. Filtering out the real from a sea of imitations, choosing honesty over pretence, mining for truth when so much around us is fake. But that's the journey that Ben Cantelon is on - a search shared by fellow worshippers the world over. And it's the soundtrack to his debut album,...
Graham Kendrick
Everybody knows Graham Kendrick's story: the anthems, the marches, the soundtrack that has kept in step with the advancing church over recent decades. But take a listen to his latest album (his thirty-seventh, by all counts) and it's clear that Graham's story has a fresh chapter to be studied, appreciated and passed on for generation...
Chris McClarney

From iTunes charts to church movements, many, many people are talking about...

Ken Riley (yfriday)

The words of Ken Riley, singer and frontman with one of the UK's most influential groups of the last of decade or two: the soon-to-be-ending...
Keith & Kristyn Getty

Their hymns helped the church become engaged in fresh ways...
Roy Fields

Bluetree
Take six guys from Belfast - the sort who grew up in and around the troubles, whose faith evolved as roadblocks and bomb scares punctuated their daily routines - and grow them in a church soaked in worship. Open them up to a sense of adventure, to a passion for local churches and prodigals, fill...
David Ostby
”My passion is really for the local church. I know that everyone says that these days, but I know it to be true. It’s logical, isn’t it? It’s through the local church that God brings his kingdom to the world. So I believe that everything with a global impact starts locally. And that’s where I...
Miriam Webster
If you’d been there, you probably wouldn’t have thought much of it. After all, it was just a kid dancing at the front of church. But when that child is a four-year-old named Miriam Webster, and that church happens to be experiencing a profound revival, it’s hard to overstate the significance. “I was really young...
Brenton Brown
"Sometimes it seems as though all we can see is the ending. Tragedy hits and we wonder if there ever will be a way out of our low point. We cannot see the beginnings and middles that follow, and we are blind to our part in the greater story that Christ himself writes. Brenton Brown...
Rend Collective Experiment
Homemade Worship By Handmade People. It’s a truth universally acknowledged that anything homemade is typically better than its slick, factory-produced counterpart. Much like a handwritten note, a birthday gift that wasn’t procured at the local mall or a mouthwatering, made-from-scratch meal savored with family and friends, Irish worship artists Rend Collective Experiment wanted to approach the follow-up...
Aaron Keyes
The last thing you want to do, in the middle of a fight, is... NOTHING. Unless, of course, you expect someone bigger to show up and fight for you. It’s an upside down principle, or so it seems, but for worship leader and songwriter Aaron Keyes, this is the key to worship, even the key to...
Nick Herbert

The City Harmonic
When listening to The City Harmonic, you instinctively turn up the volume and join the chorus as the music dynamically bounces from sparse intimacy to soaring celebration and back again. It's a musical metaphor for the band that plays it with their feet in the dirt and their eyes toward the heavens.' It isn't long...

Matt Redman
When Matt Redman gets to the heart of the matter, the truth quickly comes to light: when it comes to all this chaos and turmoil, all this fear and all these failing economies, what matters most is the heart. Matt's latest studio album - 'We Shall Not Be Shaken' - does precisely that, stripping...
