For all those, like me, who have eagerly awaited the new album from Leeland, the wait is over! I really liked the first album, but I was completely won offer as a fan when I saw Leeland live last summer at Creation East.
Leeland's live set is a mix of modern worship and Jesus movement. But it's more than a music set, it's a worship experience. Leeland himself, does things from a musician and worship leading standpoint that most 40 year old worship leading veterans struggle to do.
From the new record, my favs are "Opposite Way", "Enter This Temple, and "Brighter Days". I would love to try "Enter This Temple" in my worship set. Of course, I'd need to bring it down about 3 steps into mere mortal vocal range!
"Opposite Way" is super hooky and "Bright Days" just makes me happy.
I'd love to hear what you guys think about it.
I LOVE it!!! Opposite Way is definitely the stand-out song for me. A great follow-up to their last album!!

Amazing! Really, I think this is good music with some well crafted textures. And, yes, it really draws me into a worship moment.
