Elevation Worship releases new live album, 'When Wind Meets Fire'

Press Release

Grammy Award-winning group Elevation Worship releases their new live album, “When Wind Meets Fire,” with 14 new songs. The album features Elevation Worship’s Chris Brown, Tiffany Hudson, Jonsal Barrientes, Jenna Barrientes, Elevation Rhythm's Bella Cordero, and Pastor Steven Furtick, along with collaborators Chandler Moore, Leeland, and Joe L Barnes.

Marking the group’s 17th album, “When Wind Meets Fire” continues the collective’s tradition of writing songs for the church. Listen to the new album here. 

The foundational title cut attempts to encapsulate the sensory experience depicted in the book of Acts when Paul describes the hurricane-force power of the Holy Spirit. Elevation Worship’s Brown echoed the song’s lyric, “God is Wind and Fire, the Author of life and an all-consuming fire. Whatever He speaks is done, whatever He touches lives.”

From bold declarations to comforting ballads, Elevation Worship’s latest endeavor sits at the crossroads where God’s life-giving wind meets his life-changing fire. This is a fresh batch of songs that offers a taste of the transformation that’s happening every week at Elevation Church, tried and true selections they’ve been singing for the better part of 14 months, and anthems that are making their mark in real-time.

Elevation Worship kicks off its nearly sold-out “Praise Party Summer Tour” this month, offering eight outdoor major-market shows and three indoor venues. The summer tour is titled after the group’s hit song “Praise,” which continues to be No. 1 after 11 weeks on radio and the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart for the last 18 weeks. This fall, the group will continue the “Elevation Nights” tour with Furtick and Elevation Rhythm on the West Coast in September and October. Tickets for both tours are on sale now and can be purchased by visiting ElevationWorship.com.
