Phoenix, Arizona May 16, 2024 (Issuewire.com) – Early in 2024, Worship Leader & Singer-Songwriter thurane launched two new Singles, Redeemer in January & Lead Me To the Cross in March. These Singles are to be included in the forthcoming “Lift Him Up” E.P. & “Worship Servant” album planned for later this year & early 2025.

After thurane’s : authentic worship : E.P. made a splash last year, his new material offers a fresh expression of Worship music at a time when current, more popular offerings seem like carbon copies of other yet more popular songs of the past.

Redeemer sounds like Zach Williams leading Worship with Fleetwood Mac & Led Zeppelin; while Lead Me To the Cross (written by Brooke Ligertwood) takes the typically performed Worship song as an intimate ballad to a new place: “What if Hillsong Worship teamed up with Stone Temple Pilots & Metallica to lead Worship?”
