Chris Tomlin, David Crowder Band, Matt Redman on 'Passion: Awakening' album
WITH NEARLY two million Passion event records sold to date, sixstepsrecords are expectant about the release of 'Passion: Awakening'. The project features leading worship artists Chris Tomlin, David Crowder Band, Matt Redman, Charlie Hall, Christy Nockels, Kristian Stanfill, Fee and Hillsong United. Recorded live in January at Passion 2010 in Atlanta, Georgia, with more than 22,000 university-aged young people in attendance, the album features a dozen tracks including eight brand new, never before released songs including "Our God", "Awakening", "Say, Say" and "Chosen Generation".
Said Passion's founder Louie Giglio, "I couldn't be more excited about our latest release. . . 'Passion: Awakening' captures the heartbeat of students, in this case 22,000 strong, awakening to make Jesus famous in everything they do. 14 years and 12 albums into the Passion Movement, I could not be more proud of this project and our team. Our vision is consistent and durable, but the music, most written specifically for this gathering, is fresh, pushing us forward as we seek to wed worship and justice for his fame in all the earth."
