Songwriters being asked to share their music through the UK's Homegrown Worship

New Worship Initiative

SHEFFIELD'S Resound Media is launching Homegrown Worship, an ambitious project which will see producer Andy Baker "modelling the process of writing, recording and sharing new music in a bid to attract other writers to share their music with the homegrown worship community." The initiative is being launched through Rocket Fuel, the crowdfunding platform launched by Andy in 2014. The site has helped artists raise hundreds of thousands of pounds including several successful projects with Philippa Hanna who has worked with Resound Media over the past decade. New recordings will be shared through streaming and download platforms from 1st June along with lyric videos and a blog detailing information on each songwriter and the inspiration behind the song. Songs and interviews will be shared each week on UCB radio from June as part of their weekly Live Praise show. Said Baker, "I'm excited to go back to my roots musically speaking. . . my first gig was playing in the church worship band aged 13 and I am passionate to unearth new songs whilst encouraging writers of sacred music to create new recordings in a variety of styles." CR
