"I'm excited for everyone, especially fans of my music, to hear what I've been working on. I'm really grateful to Rhapsody for the opportunity to unveil my new recording, re:creation here," says Chapman.
The new album features six new songs from the five-time GRAMMY® Award winner, including the Top 5 single "Do Everything" and all new re-imagined recordings of his eight biggest hits. The entire record has a progressive and fresh acoustic sound, which reflects the energy and life found in the songs. The title speaks to the actual recreation of these songs, which are all new recordings.
"Over the course of his nearly 25-year career, Steven Curtis Chapman has chronicled his own journey through song while creating a soundtrack for our lives," said Wendy Lee Nentwig, Christian editor, Rhapsody. "We've watched him grow from a baby-faced Kentucky boy to the winner of more than 50 Gospel Music Association Dove Awards, including seven wins for Artist of the Year. His new album, re:creation, finds Steven Curtis emerging from a family tragedy to revisit some of his classic tunes, giving them a creative overhaul. Time and experience gives these songs new meaning, while Chapman delivers six brand-new tracks."
