All Things New Releases Christmas Single "Angels We Have Heard on High"

Christian pop group All Things New, which records for BEC Recordings, has released their new Christmas single "Angels We Have Heard on High."  The single is a re-make of the traditional Christmas carol with the boys adding in their patented sound.  You can listen to it below and download "Angels We Have Heard On High" on iTunes now.

Recently, All Things New released their sophomore record The Good News.  This is what we said about the album in our review: "To avoid the sophomore slum, All Things New has opted to return to the grassroots of what's at the cynosure of our faith, the Gospel.  Distilling to the issues that are indispensable as far as the evangel is concerned, these 10 newly written songs deal with Christ's work on the Cross ("The Good News"), Christ's transformative power ("Change"), the defeat of Satan and all things evil ("Can't Hold Me Down"), and faith ("Believe").  "The Good News" is thus a cohesive treatise on the Gospel of Jesus Christ and its practical permutations in our everyday lives; an album that strikes at the bull's eye of everything that is important.  Sonically, rather than slouch into the EDM glassy gauze with non-descript melodic lines, the boys have worked extra hard to make sure that each song here has identity, carved out by its well-developed melodies, word choices, and sustained images informed by Scripture." 

Consisting of Garrett Hornbuckle (Vocals), Jeff Stein (Guitars), Luke Wycuff  (Drums), and Josh Shou (Bass/Guitars), the band hails from Florida and first came together during their mid-teen years. The group was named after 2 Corinthians 5:17, "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come." 

Coming from rough backgrounds, the boys were bonded by their broken homes, broken hearts and struggling views of faith. For their debut self titled album (April 9th 2013), the group pulled from the pain of their past to write music together. "My entire life was centered around myself. I used to wake up and think: 'Who might have something that I want today?'" Joshua explains. "It's so powerful to know that as a Christian we have Jesus inside us, and we will do greater things because of it. I know now my life is not my own. I want my life to be devoted to Christ and serving others. That's what makes being in All Things New such a blessing." 

"God has ingrained in us a love for Him," adds Luke. "Everyone has that even if they don't realize it yet. When the weight of the world gets to you, it's that spark that brings you back."
