Gaither Music Group is thrilled to announce the release of a new live performance CD and DVD – Let’s Just Praise the Lord – by the legendary gospel quintet Gaither Vocal Band. Known for their unparalleled, award-winning harmonies, the Gaither Vocal Band Hall of Fame members Gospel Music Association and the 2022 GRAMMY® nominees brought to life their unique interpretations of some of the most beloved praise and worship songs of the last two decades. Produced by group founder and bass singer Bill Gaither and award-winning Nashville musician Gordon Mote, Let’s Just Praise the Lord brings soulful vocal performances and reverent arrangements to modern-day gospel classics like “My Chains Are Gone,” “10,000 Reasons,” “Revelation Song” and more. Highlighting not only the group’s seamless five-part medleys, the album embodies a spirit of unity, inviting listeners of all ages to sing along. “There are times in our lives when God shows up and we don’t have the words,” said Gaither. “We need something musically that can unite us and bring us together, and we’re looking for the right words.” It used to be “Kumbaya,” and I remember a time when it was “Hallelujah.” An older generation did it with “Blessed Assurance,” and the younger generation found words with songs like “How Great Is Our God.” “Styles come and go. What’s cool and hip today will be outdated tomorrow, but the lyrics and messages of some songs will remain. This project has been a wonderful opportunity for us to look at powerful songs from the past few years with those kinds of messages—songs like “10,000 Reasons”—that will likely be around long after we’re gone…songs that bring us together—young and old. Too much divides us. We hope these songs can build bridges in the body of Christ.” Lead singles “Reckless Love,” “Oh, Can You See It,” and “Revelation Song” charted prominently on digital streaming platforms including Spotify’s New Music Friday Christian and Top Christian & Gospel playlists and Apple’s Essentials branded playlists. “Reckless Love” charted on Pandora’s Weekly Thumbs Up chart, transcending genre boundaries with a presence on every worship station. A featured artist in the Gaither Homecoming video series and national concerts, the band’s LIVE performances from the new recording were featured in a special broadcast on PBS, Circle TV, TBN, RFD-TV, Gaither TV, TCT, Heartland and CTN with airings in Canada on Vision TV, CTS, The Miracle Channel and Hope TV.
