You can enjoy hearing songs from "God's Living Water" by logging onto internet radio (www.spiritco1.com) or by tuning into a local over-the-air radio station in your area that plays independent artists.
The goal of this album is to highlight Midwest talent that would otherwise get overlooked because of lack of national exposure. This product has been put in the hands of a gospel radio announcer from every state in the union via the Gospel Music Workshop of America, and songs from the album can be requested over the airways.
↓ more ↓The music styles range from a Michael McDonald/James Ingram style (Nate Bray), to a Sade/Natalie Cole style (Beverly Thompson), to an Emotions style (Jimery Stewart & Jocelyn Bray), to a Donny McClurkin style (Eric Jordan). The album also features 15 year old Franque Thompson's debut as a recording artists, as well as the inclusion of 3 gospel love and relationship songs by Franklin, Beverly, and Franque Thompson.
Although all songs are contemporary in nature, none of the selections are tasteless and overdone. Unlike other contemporary gospel products, the ministry portion of this product is clear and evident. The lyrics are very strong and God's kingdom principles come across loud and clear. At least 7 of the 14 songs have potential to make the Billboard top Gospel 100 charts. "Got to Be Strong", "Heart & Soul", "Masquerade", "My Father's Eyes", and "Saved & Classy Lady" have the potential to get charted in the top 50.
This album is not your typical independent release that has 1-2 good songs surrounded by a plethora of average filler tunes. All of the songs are strong enough to withstand scrutiny from the traditional church world, while some are also marketable enough to be played in dance clubs ala nationally know artists Kirk Franklin and Mary Mary. God's Living Water is a music project that is bound to get picked up and distributed nationally in the near future.
Melodic Praise Records, Selah Sound, Inc., the parent company sponsoring this music project has had limited national success with three previous album releases entitled "Ready to Learn" (Beverly Thompson), "A Revelatory Epistle to the Churches" (H.G. Filled), and "Sunday Morning" (Herman Cain). It is just a matter of time before the label and the artists it represents become household names.
