GRAMMY nominated and Billboard #1 worship groups Elevation Worship and Maverick City are gearing up for the release of their collaborative live album, Old Church Basement, dropping April 30, 2021. The album’s highly anticipated first single, Jireh featuring Chandler Moore and Naomi Raine of Maverick City is available today! 

“Over the past year, the Mav crew has become more like family to us,” says Chris Brown from Elevation Worship. “The times we’ve spent writing and worshipping together have been very special and felt equally important to what God was doing in both of our ministries.” Out of one of their first songwriting sessions came the song “Jireh,” a powerful ballad that Elevation Worship has been singing in their church services for several months. “It was the first song Pastor Steven and I wrote with Chandler Moore and Naomi Raine and it’s the song that kickstarted the idea for the entire project, Old Church Basement," says Brown.

“Jireh” features lead vocals from Chandler Moore and Naomi Raine, who are also credited as co-writers on the track. “This song has honestly been a reminder for me that God is everything we’ll ever need. My prayer and hope is that everyone who listens to this is reminded of the Father’s heart toward us and that He loves to take care of us,” says Naomi Raine of Maverick City.

Elevation Worship seeks to create an atmosphere that allows people to encounter Jesus in a real and personal way, and they continue to achieve this with Graves Into Gardens: Morning & Evening — the group’s fresh take on the popular 2020 release Graves Into Gardens, written before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The project features new versions of congregational favorites “RATTLE!” and RIAA Gold-Certified “The Blessing.” 

“We thought it would be fun to get back into the studio and take a fresh look at some of the songs that have carried us through this season. Our hope is that God speaks, your faith is built, your perspective is lifted, and your awareness of His presence is strengthened. We pray these new versions find a way into your spirit and become the soundtracks of devotional time in the days ahead.”
