Israel Houghton and New Breed [YtseJeffx]+[Janleigh]

Israel Houghton and New Breed has achieved a synthesis of music and message that is electrifying and activating

audiences inside and outside of traditional church walls. Most of their albums have to be recorded before live audiences

to capture their singular infectious energy. Leader, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Israel Houghton has

seen his compositions become integral components for progressive now-generation churches. Flanked by voices filled ith

joy, purpose and conviction singing over galvanizing arrangements of music with African, Middle Eastern and South

American slants—like Earth Wind & Fire meets Pat Metheny Group—Israel and New Breed have swiftly amassed

a legion of followers that crosses generational lines with popularity across African American, Latin and White listener

lines. And as barriers are blasted away, the sprawling cutting-edge unit has been fittingly graced with two Gold-selling

albums, four Dove Awards, two Stellar Awards, a Soul Train Award and four 2007 Grammy Award nominations, resulting in a

Grammy for Best Traditional Gospel Album for the scorching Alive in South Africa project. Ironically, there is very

little that is "traditional" about the way Israel and his group have been working their evangelical magic.

GENRE : Christian Gospel


INFO :

2008 Grammy Winner: Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album


For 40 days they fasted and petitioned the Lord to give everybody who hears this project a new heart for compassion and

justice. Now they're sharing the music with the world! You'll be blown away by "So Come," "Prayers of the

Righteous," "Say So," "With Long Life," "We Have Overcome," "If Not for Your

Grace," and more.

The Bible depicts heaven as a place where we’ll experience communion with a myriad of voices, but first and

foremost with the God whom we’re all praising in unison. Israel Houghton is no stranger to large worship

gatherings. He serves as worship leader for one of the nation’s largest churches—Joel Osteen’s

Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas— and, with New Breed, he’s been able to bring his

“cross-cultural” worship music to the masses at conferences around the country and the world.

One such conference, the annual A Deeper Level Conference in Houston Texas, provided the material for the latest live

album from the group. Gleaned from three nights of worship with guest appearances from T-Bone and Chris Tomlin, and

clocking in at 16 songs plus a bonus version of “You Are Not Forgotten” featuring Jonny Lang, A Deeper Level

succeeds in bringing the live atmosphere to the personal setting of choice for listeners everywhere.

Though not quite the same experience as being there, the goal and result is the same: leading others into the worship

of the Lord, regardless of background or status.
