Eddy Mann releases worship single “We Are”

Veteran Christian singer songwriter and worship leader Eddy Mann has released “We Are”, a contemplative, jazz influenced worship song inspired by passages from the Book of Revelation. Officially released as a single on 21 August, “We Are” originally appears on Mann’s album “The Unveiling” and draws its inspiration from Revelation 4:8b and 4:11. The track transforms the biblical vision of worship into a meditation on identity, unity and humanity’s relationship with God. “We Are” draws inspiration from Revelation With a career spanning more than three decades, Mann has developed an extensive catalogue centred around faith, hope, compassion and the everyday realities of the spiritual journey. “We Are” continues those themes while exploring different musical territory, combining contemporary and contemplative worship with elements of sacred jazz. Mann explained that the song emerged from a personal moment of worship and reflection on Revelation chapter four. He said: “It’s a jazz influenced scripture song that grew out of a quiet time of worship, inspired by a devotional moment in Revelation, chapter four.” Eddy Mann embraces unusual 5/4 rhythm One of the song’s most distinctive musical characteristics is its 5/4 time signature. According to Mann, however, the unusual rhythm was not something he deliberately set out to incorporate. He said: “It wasn’t intentionally composed in 5/4 time; it simply settled there on its own, as though it had found the rhythm it was always meant to have.” The resulting arrangement brings musical complexity to a song built around a deliberately simple spiritual message. Worship song explores identity and unity The lyrics draw directly on the biblical inspiration behind the track, beginning with declarations of God’s holiness before developing into a refrain centred around collective identity, purpose and devotion. The song includes the declaration, “Holy, holy, holy/ Is the Lord Almighty”, before moving into its central message: “We are Your will/ We are Your desire/ We are Your pleasure.” Through those words, Mann places an emphasis on togetherness rather than separation and collective spiritual identity rather than individualism. While the wider world can encourage division and culture can place individual identity at its centre, Mann instead focuses the song around the concept of “we”. Eddy Mann continues three decade career Throughout his career, Mann has released more than 20 albums and received recognition through Christian radio and international digital charts. He has also developed a dedicated audience through his personal approach to faith centred songwriting. His catalogue has explored worship, relationships, suffering, perseverance and spiritual renewal, with Mann consistently placing authenticity ahead of commercial trends. “We Are” brings many of those ideas together, contrasting its unconventional musical structure with the simplicity of its message. More than 20 albums of Christian music Originally from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Mann is a singer songwriter, musician, worship leader and minister whose career has now spanned more than three decades. Across more than 20 albums, he has developed a sound incorporating contemporary Christian music, worship, folk, jazz and roots music. His creative approach is guided by what he describes as his “audience of One”, while his music continues to centre on faith, hope, compassion and the belief that every artist is called to discover and share an authentic individual voice.

Maverick catches up with Parmalee

At Country Calling last month, Parmalee‘s long awaited UK debut proved well worth the wait as they closed Saturday night with a high energy set build around songs that have defined their rise in the States. The band gave the UK crowd plenty to sing along to with songs such as “Cowgirl” and “Gonna Love You” before “Take My Name” provided another stand out moment. Earlier that day, Maverick was lucky enough to catch up with Parmalee. How have you been finding your first time in the UK? We’re loving it. We already feel like we’re right at home. Everyone has been so nice over here and the food has been great. We’re getting used to some of the British terms and phrases since being here as well. We asked someone for directions the other day and the guy said, “Well, that’s such a long journey from here.” It really wasn’t far at all! A bartender the other night asked, “Fancy a cocktail, do ya?” and I thought as a matter of fact, I do. It’s been fun picking up all the little differences from home since being here. What can you tell me about your tonights performance? How’re you feeling? We’re really looking forward to it. We’ve got a great set planned and we’re bringing everything we do in the States over here, plus some. The audience will be getting a little more bang for your buck. We’ve got some special stuff lined up for tonight too, so we’re excited. Everyone keeps telling us that the UK audiences really listen which is it’s kinda scary, it means we’ve got to be really good! No pressure! Can you tell me what your biggest inspirations for your career are? Honestly, probably not having to go back to the terrible jobs we had before. We all spent a lot of years working our $10 an hour outdoor jobs just trying to make the man happy. We’ve each done different things from an logging to farming. Two of us did Pizza delivery for a while. We did whatever it took and we had family and friends who supported what we were trying to do. They would help us get off early on a Friday so we could go out on the weekends and play Friday and Saturday nights. Sometimes, if we did have a Thursday night show they would let us off so we could go.
