Bethel Music Singer/Songwriter Readies Six-Song EP
REDDING, Calif.—Dove Award-nominated Bethel Music singer/songwriter and worship leader Josh Baldwin is set to bow his first live EP April 24. A collection of six passionate and heartfelt moments of worship ushering listeners into the presence of God, Live At Church was recorded at the Bethel Music Worship School.
The project showcases a live rendition of Baldwin’s recent single, the anthemic “Let The Redeemed”; “Endlessly,” “Fountains” and “You Deserve It All” from his 2017 Bethel Music debut, The War Is Over; a fresh take on Hillsong UNITED’s classic “Came To My Rescue”; and the spontaneous “All I Really Want.”
“This album really feels like coming home to me,” Baldwin says of Live At Church. “I have been leading worship for over 20 years in the church and it still feels like the most natural expression of who I am. My heart has always been to write songs for the Church and for corporate worship around the world, and I pray that this album brings the Church fresh encounters with the presence of God.”
North Carolina native Josh Baldwin has been a member of the world-renowned Bethel Music collective since 2014 and also serves as a worship leader at Bethel Church in Redding, California. Fueled by his breakout hit, “Stand In Your Love,” from Bethel Music’s best-selling VICTORY compilation, Baldwin was a 2019 GMA Dove Award nominee in the prestigious New Artist of the Year category. “Stand In Your Love” reached #2 at Christian radio and also landed in the Top 10 on Billboard’s 2019 year-end Christian Airplay Songs chart. Baldwin’s critically-acclaimed 2017 full-length Bethel Music debut, The War Is Over, entered Billboard’s Top Christian Albums chart at #2 following its release.
