Vertical Expressions

II Guys from Petra - Vertical Expressions
MSRP CD - $14.98
UPC 7-91381-83952-4

What do the lead singer and guitarist/songwriter of Petra do after 33 successful years of ministry? Well for John Schlitt and Bob Hartman, the answer was to begin a whole new ministry! Collectively known as II Guys from Petra, John and Bob introduce their new worship album, Vertical Expressions. Featuring ten of today’s best loved worship songs plus a brand new version of one of Petra’s all time favorites, Vertical Expressions is destined to become a must-have for Petra fans the world over.

At the time of Petra’s retirement, the future was unclear for Bob and John. Both were pursuing other ventures when Bob received an invitation from Canada to lead worship for a youth retreat. Bob immediately thought of teaming with John, much to the delight of the sponsors. As Bob began arranging popular worship songs for the duo to perform, it became clear that it wouldn’t be much of a stretch for them to record an album together. After several months of work, it was time for them to christen the new venture. Should they call themselves Bob and John or perhaps, Hartman and Schlitt? Eventually, the two elected to call themselves what they suspected people would inevitably say… “Hey, isn’t that the two guys from Petra?”

For more than three decades Petra remained faithful to their calling and to their commitment of preaching the Gospel through music. Their commitment remains strong today and with II Guys from Petra, Bob Hartman and John Schlitt have come together again to deliver the Gospel in a powerful worship experience with their new album, Vertical Expressions.

 

In God's Presence

Greg X Volz - In God's Presence
MSRP CD - $16.98
UPC 6-50458-11172-0

Greg X. Volz (the 'X' is for Xavier) is best known as the lead vocalist for the legendary rock band Petra during their golden years (1977-1986). An incredible rock singer with a 4-octave range, Greg Volz was offered the role of lead vocalist for REO Speedwagon in the 70’s, but decided instead to join Petra. He spent most of the following decade using his vocal talents to give Petra their signature, arena-rock sound, performing an average of 160 concerts per year. Petra deserves credit for demonstrating the viability of rock 'n' roll as a medium for Christian expression. They were among the first faith-based rock outfits to tour with extensive light shows and special effects. For many years, they were Christian music's best-selling band with over 6 million units sold and they were the only Christian act invited to play at the historic Farm Aid Festival. As a member of Petra, Volz was inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in 2000.

Greg X. Volz is one of the very artists who pioneered “Jesus Rock.” In the 70’s, he formed a group and toured as one of the very first hard rock Christian bands. He later went on to work with legendary guitarist Phil Keaggy, and after lending his talents as a guest vocalist on Petra's Come and Join Us release in 1976, he was invited to join Petra full-time. This period yielded some of the band’s most memorable recordings, including Washes Whiter Than, Never Say Die, More Power To Ya, and the Grammy Award nominated albums, Not Of This World, and Beat The System.

Captured in Time and Space, recorded live in 1985 would be Greg's last release as front man for Petra. Volz went on to pursue a solo career releasing a string of successful recordings, including the critically acclaimed 1986 classic The River Is Rising, and toured with Joe English (former drummer for Paul McCartney and Wings) in a band called Pieces of Eight.

Today, Greg continues to travel the nation, encouraging primarily Christian audiences with his music and ministry. “I’m just trying to make a difference in the body of Christ," says Greg, “It is my desire to get out of the way and usher God's children into His presence, where, unhindered and unhampered, their needs are met. The music will lift your spirit and take you into the presence of God, but it is the truth that sets men free!"

In addition to being “the voice of Petra” John Schlitt has had a successful solo career yielding an impressive body of work including his 1995 release Shake followed by Unfit For Swine in 1996.

2008 begins a new chapter as Schlitt delivers what many consider to be his finest work to date with The Grafting. “This album has gone in a totally different direction for me and I’m very excited about that new direction,” says John, “The subject matter on The Grafting is just as important as the music.” John Schlitt tackles a variety of sensitive issues including adoption, divorce, caring for third world children and more. “It’s timely for me to do an album like this; not only from the standpoint of the subject matter, but also in the fact that the music itself is going down a whole new path,” explains John.

“These are songs about relationships. These are songs that I hope will encourage you,” says Schlitt, “I believe the purest form of music is music that worships the Lord. I can’t wait for you to hear these new songs because I know they’re gonna bless you!” Hear John Schlitt like you’ve never heard him before; order The Grafting today!

You Made It

Mary Gaines Bernard - You Made It
MSRP CD - $16.98
UPC 0-94922-89358-1

Born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, Mary grew up in a musically talented family and is the 6th of 7 children. She was surrounded by music growing up as her family’s singing echoed throughout the house. Music was a big part of her childhood and often times she could be found harmonizing to the songs of the day with her sisters on the back porch of their home. Little did she know those sing-along sessions with her siblings would serve as the catalyst for the life and ministry to come.

Known as the “House Rocking, Show Stopping Gaines Sisters”, they soon garnered the attention of music fans throughout the Boston area. After college, Mary switched coasts and headed to Los Angeles to join her sister Donna Summer as one of her background singers. The years that followed brought incredible opportunities as Mary recorded, traveled and performed all over the world with her sister.

Her journeys have lead to high profile performances including the Grammy Awards and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, which Mary began to see as open doors to reaching those who would never set foot in a church. Through the years, Mary’s diverse experience and training have all played critical roles in preparing her for her first solo album, You Made It. This project has been a long time in the making and is an inspiration from God alone. As Mary has learned to hear the voice of God and trust in His leading, she feels one of her main gifts has become teaching and encouraging the body of Christ to believe God and trust in His word.

 

Soul of a Man - The Journey

Ken Gober - Soul of a Man: The Journey
MSRP CD - $16.98
UPC 7-96873-01349-9

Multi-talented singer/songwriter Ken Gober is bursting on to the Gospel scene with a unique style of music that he calls, "Rhythm & Praise". With his new release, Soul of a Man: The Journey, Ken is carving his own niche in the Gospel music industry. Born and raised in Gary, Indiana, music served as a constant inspiration throughout his life. His musical ability and talent was evident at an early age and helped to keep him away from the negative distractions of the streets.

Although Christian values were taught and instilled in Ken while growing up, like the prodigal son, he strayed away and in the process, became hooked on drugs and alcohol. Through God's grace and mercy, Ken was set free from the clutches of that addiction and he serves as a challenging inspiration to anyone who may find themselves bound by drugs or alcohol.

In 2003, Ken sensed the call of God on his life and he made the decision to firmly anchor his soul in faith and turn his gifts and talents over to the Lord. He has since dedicated the rest of his life to serving and ministering to God's people. Ken Gober has come full circle, returning to where it all began - in the church! With a fresh anointing, God has truly birthed a special talent that will touch the hearts of God's people and proclaim His truth to the world.

Having sold more than 8 million records worldwide reaching RIAA certified gold and platinum status, Michael has left his mark on the music business, but more importantly, he has made a lasting impression on the millions of people affected by his music. 2008 marks the release of what is perhaps Michael Sweet’s most personal and compelling work to date with his new studio project Touched.

In November of 2006, Stryper announced plans to record a follow up to their critically acclaimed album, Reborn, for release in 2007. However, that February saw lead singer Michael Sweet delay the release of the new album just two days before recording was scheduled to begin. Michael's wife Kyle had been diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer, and the new album was put on hold so that he could care for his wife and family. She underwent surgery and treatment from February 14 to July 14. Michael recalls, “During this time at home, as I took care of my wife and family, I felt led to record a “love letter” to Kyle - love songs that are in dedication to her.”

Now you can experience firsthand the result of this labor of love with the release of Touched. Featuring new recordings of Michael’s best loved originals Honestly, Together As One, and All of Me as well as some of today’s most recognizable love songs including You Are So Beautiful, She’s Got A Way, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and many more. Share your love through Touched with that special someone in your life.

Touched is a powerful testimony to the love and dedication shared between a man and his wife. “In an instant I learned that nothing is more important than love, faith and commitment,” says Michael. “This led to my desire to record and dedicate an entire project to Kyle and it’s an honor to be able to share this music with all of you.” Whether your spouse is in need of a healing touch or your marriage is in need of healing renewal, Touched will serve as a challenging inspiration.

And that's exactly what He did!” That legacy continues with the release of Michael Bloodgood’s latest endeavor The Cross Changes Everything.

There is power in agreement. We should spend more time worshiping together.” Join Tony Hooper in Worship Rising for a powerful and uplifting worship experience.

Undone

Heather Powers - Undone
MSRP CD - $16.98
UPC 8-97641-00110-3

The concept of sharing a testimony or throwing together an attention-grabbing mission statement is frequently forged onto a Christian musician’s psyche. Though sincerity may be at the root, sometimes such stories come across as contrived, lacking the riveting details and real life dramas that only a true survivor can recount. In the case of gutsy troubadour Heather Powers, every clever catch phrase and neatly wrapped presentation of faith are completely thrown out the window in favor of a truly compelling life story telling tales of distress, abuse, addiction, brokenness and eventually redemption.

"This record chronicles my journey of dealing with the pain and hurt of those who violated me and the freedom found in letting the past go", Heather reveals. "I want it to be a blessing to people regardless of what they went through and for them to lay whatever they’ve been through or are currently going through at the foot of the cross." Continuing, Heather asks, “So, you want to know what my overall mission is? I want to take this batch of songs and lay open everything God has allowed me to walk through. I’m eager to encourage people with the idea that there’s nothing too big for them to have done where God couldn’t rescue them. God’s always in the business of reaching in and resurrecting new things and if he did it with me, he can do it with you, too.”

Love Will Rise marks the first time Mitch has teamed up with producer Nathan Nockels, who crafted nine songs, and Margaret Becker, who put her stamp on four tracks.

It was Rich Mullins who introduced Mitch to the contemporary Christian music world as he traveled, did concerts, and wrote songs with Mullins for 2 years. During that time, Mitch and Rich wrote, “My Deliverer”, a Dove Award winning Song of the Year. However, in 1997, tragedy struck. As the two traveled to a concert, their vehicle overturned. Rich Mullins was killed, and Mitch was left with serious injuries. During his two year recovery period, thousands upon thousands of people around the country rallied to pray for and uplift Mitch. Where he is today is nothing short of a miracle.

Now, Mitch is glad to have Love Will Rise as a current representation of his present situation as he continues to bring his music, his heart, and his life to you. He sums it up, “I will use this opportunity to place Jesus right at the front of people’s conscience. Life is a wonderful blessing…and it is filled with troubles. But I want to remind people that love will rise”

“Shut de do’ (keep out de Devil)” written by Randy has been recorded all over the world in many languages by over 100 artists, including Kathy Matea and even the Morman Tabernacle Choir (and is the new single for the Katinas,) but you need to experience this song as performed by the legend himself. Randy backs up Phil, Phil backs up Randy, each performs solo singing all of his fan favorites, and an historic Christian recording is born.
