NewSpring – ‘Difference Maker EP’ album review

Worship music continues to change, as it should. As an expression of devotion and love to our Savior, its evolution is a great indication that the Family of God is an ever-growing and diverse community. NewSpring, the musical representation of South Carolina’s NewSpring Church pastored by Perry Noble, manages to jam-pack as much of this rhythmic and melodic divergence into one four-song EP as possible—and they do it very well. The opening track, “Now And Forever,” is a perfect blend of synth-rock and reverence, while “Love Me Like That” takes the listener into experiencing elements of EDM (we imagine throngs of congregants across NewSpring’s many campuses dancing in the isles). The EP ends with an acoustic version of the classic hymn, “It Is Well,” featuring flawless harmonies while leading the worshipper into a spirit of victory over any current circumstance. With seventeen campuses across the state from the Atlantic coastline to the Georgia and North Carolina borders, this could only be a glimpse into what God is doing in the lives of people in South Carolina and beyond.
