Canada? This is live worship from a warehouse. It could be anywhere: Anaheim, Sydney or Bradford. Four fast songs followed by six slow ones and three others to finish. This is a mixture of oldies and newies. The oldies have all been done more effectively by others (Matt Redman, Hillsongs, Iona, etc.). The newies are nice enough but unremarkable. The production and musicianship are as good as you would expect with Johnny Markin at the helm. However, the lead vocal can only just be heard above the congregation on most tracks. Irritating. Intimate it's not. Innovative it's not.
