A featured artist on both CR CDs 17 and 18 with Maker Of All Things and Day After Day Tim Hughes has had substantial recent exposure to CR readers and has touched many with his tremendous work at Soul Survivor. Now this superbly produced studio album is getting much play on Cross Rhythms radio. Hailing from the same church as Matt Redman, this solo album elevates another songwriter/worship leader to the premier league. Varying from power balllads to acoustic guitar tracks, infectious melodies and rhythms draw the listener into worship. Production by former members of Sonicflood has given this album a great sound that must be heard. Tim s heart for worship is demonstrated in every song and are tipped by Survivor Records as soon to become classics , these songs represent a significant new development in worship songwriting in this country.
