Over social media, the "Holy Spirit" singer has revealed that she sings lead vocals on two songs on the new record. They are "There's No Other Name" and "God I Look To You." She writes: "Being a part of the tour that made this album a reality was life-changing in many ways. And now listening back through the songs (over and over) is changing me again. His goodness is so evident on this album and in the lives of the women who wrote and sang these songs."
""Starlight" is the much anticipated follow up album to "You Make Me Brave," featuring 14 new songs from @amandalindseycook, @steffanydawn, @jennjohnson20, @kalleyheili, @kristenedimarco, @mphelser, and @hannahmcclure. These women are LEGIT human beings, and I'm honored to be in their company! (The songs I lead are "There is No Other Name" and "God I Look to You.") Pre-order it now and get 3 songs instantly. Releases worldwide 4.17.17!!!"
Bethel Music's first full-length live album, Starlight was recorded live on tour last fall during their Worship Nights. The team will be hitting the road again for another run of Worship Nights in April (find dates and tickets here). Starlight is available for pre-order on iTunes starting today, with three new songs, including the title track, immediately available for download.
