Matt Redman Sets ‘Glory Song’ Release For September

Matt Redman is gearing up for the release of his 13th album, Glory Song, on Sept. 29 with sixstepsrecords, Capitol CMG. The Grammy winner’s newest collection of songs covers a sonically diverse musical backdrop, including uniting with 120 local worship leaders and songwriters on group vocals, and special guest collaborations with Tasha Cobbs Leonard and Kierra Sheard.

Glory Song was co-produced by Jeremy Edwardson and Jeremy SH Griffith and songwriters including Bernie Herms, Aaron Lindsey, Chris Tomlin, Jonas Myrin and Ed Cash joined Redman on this latest release. The first single from the album, “Gracefully Broken” featuring Tasha Cobbs Leonard, is going for adds at radio Aug. 2.

“I’d made three live albums in a row, so this time around we decided to get back to recording in the studio and I was beyond grateful to get to do that at such an iconic place – Capitol Studios in LA,” explains Redman. “My aim from the beginning was to bring a bit more of a ‘gospel’ sound to proceedings. Recently I’ve been inspired by worship leaders like Tasha Cobbs Leonard, but also so aware of how little our various streams of the church seem to proactively reach out and work and worship with each other. So this record hopefully still sounds like me, but you’ll also hear the likes of Tasha, Kierra Sheard and a gospel choir in the mix too – and I love what they bring.”

Redman will be bringing his newest collection of music to churches for nights of worship from coast to coast throughout the street week of the album. Glory Songwill be available for pre-order on Sept. 8.
