We Are Jonah - I Saw A Stranger Take A Dead Man's Place

This impressive debut album from a Bristol-based band is already getting Cross Rhythms exposure with the track "Treason" being picked up for airplay. These guys clearly know the way to develop radio friendly indie-tinged rock. "Said And Done" is an uptempo romp with an anthemic chorus that will keep you returning to it while "Something Beautiful" has a groove-driven verse and a refrain which again connects with even a casual listener. Apparently there is an Autumn tour of London and the south of England planned for We Are Jonah and, on the strength of this debut, there will surely be plenty of opportunities opening for a band who make their Spiritual points but avoid the clichés of many ministry outfits.

The title track takes you on a spiritual journey “But I've
seen a stranger take a dead man's place / I've been a sinner
in a house of grace / I've been forgiven more than I can
give / It's a shame I can't give more”.
