Fast on the way to becoming Britain's Nashville, Sheffield has brought us Philippa Hanna, The Gentlemen, and now Nick Law. With this collection of heartfelt songs, Law is clearly following in the footsteps of his contemporary worship peers, Matt Redman, Nick Herbert and Tim Hughes, and with the catchy hook and funky bass of "You Are The Lord" Nick shows he can stand up to them. His only weakness is his voice, which is more reminiscent of a teenage indie band. But then, you could say that within the context of youth worship that's no bad thing. Each track on this six-song EP offers a new way to connect with God and is delivered tenderly "(Above All) I'm Needing Your Love" and powerfully "Higher Than I", proving Nick Law has the gift to impact those beyond his home congregation.

I've seen Nick grow from strength to strength both with his
music and his love for God. What an amazing album what an
amazing guy. If you're after something that is raw and
hearty then this album is for you!
