“There Is a Cloud”
Provident Music Group, 2017
You may want to warm your voice up before popping in “There Is a Cloud” or at least have some herbal tea and honey nearby because every song on the wonderful latest album from Elevation Worship is perfectly singable — all 17 of them. That’s nearly an hour and a half of great hooks, great lyrics and great spirit from one of the finest praise acts going, which formed (and maintains) its chops in the sanctuary of Elevation Church, Charlotte, North Carolina.
The album was recorded live at the church during a September 2016 revival; despite the polished production, it genuinely feels like you’re right there there with them.
And hey — next month, you can be. Elevation Worship performs May 11 at the Birmingham Jefferson Civic Center’s Legacy Arena along with Jesus Culture and Lauren Daigle.
