Izzi Ray “Make Much of You” Album Review

Izzi Ray isn't into conveyor belt cookie cutter CCM. "Much of You" is an album free of plagiarism. On these 10 tracks, you won't find predictable melodic developments or borrowed hooks or those clichéd love-song-cum-worship lyrics that pervade so much of what we hear on Christian radio.

Christy Nockels has found her life's calling. Though she has been dabbling in Christian music through various career permutations, "Let It Be Jesus" is her first ever solo live worship album.

Lizzy Long “Blueberry Pie” Album Review

When Lizzy Long sings, she can evoke a palate of emotions. Not since Alison Krauss or Kristyn Getty has there been a voice like Long's. Possessing a sweet backwoods soprano that gushes with crystal clear Appalachian timbre, Long has a voice that can soothe like a healing balm and beguile the brawniest of hearts.
