Those with long memories will remember Neil Mansfield as frontman for a seriously wacky Christian acid jazz outfit from Southampton called Azimuth. Now, after sojourns in Germany, the USA and Sweden, Neil is living and working at The King's Church in Loughborough, Leicestershire, and joining him as part of the music team is Andy Larkum, who spent several years leading worship for student groups in Leeds before relocating to Loughborough in 1998. Neil describes the general style of music at King's as Vineyard meets Matt Redman, but reflecting the multi-cultural mix of the congregation, three of the tracks include lyrics in Hindi. The songs are soundly scriptural, totally original (six from Neil, five from Andy), and should be within the scope of most worship bands - a songbook with top line score, chord sheets and OHP masters is available for a fiver from Neil at the address above. Another worthy grass roots praise project.
