CALEB ROWDEN UNVEILS NEW RADIO SINGLE, NEW PARTNERSHIPS & A RENEWED PASSION

Coming on the heels of some time off the road to focus on his duties as Worship Pastor, Caleb Rowden re-enters the CCM singer/songwriter field with a dynamic and timely new radio offering, 'All I Need is You'. One listen to this song and you instantly connect with its soaring melodies and production, as well as the message of trusting God regardless of what is happening around you. Rowden comments 'Given the current economic climate and uncertainty still looming, the call for Christ-followers to place their hope and trust in the hands of their creator has become all-the-more important. This song highlights that challenge, communicating an urgency to rest in the hands of God. It's a message we all need to be reminded of, especially now."

In addition to the new single, Rowden recently announced the release of a free digital EP aptly titled 'The Demo Sessions' online for download. A collection of five songs recorded in Seattle with producer Brian Eichelberger [Barcelona], these new studio recordings are near and dear to Caleb's heart. 'I love these songs...they are part of my personal story of grace and redemption'. The new EP can be downloaded online at http://calebrowden.bandcamp.com.

Rowden is setting the stage for what promises to be an eventful and fruitful 2010. Already partnering with ministry organizations such as Compassion International, Mainstream Bible Outreach [www.myfreebible.org], 3MT Student Ministries, and Christ in Youth [www.ciy.com], Rowden will take his heart for compassion and justice-minded ministry to another level through an all-in-one worship and service weekend called 'Shift'. These events will focus on mobilizing the Church [with a capital C] to participate in serve projects throughout their city, and 'shift' their focus to a more outward and relational sort of ministry. The weekend will conclude with a concert featuring Caleb as well as other local and national artists. Rowden comments 'I really think it's time for God's people to act like God's people...we can and should do more to reflect the purest form of God's love that we know how. My prayer for these events is to see churches come together as the Church to accomplish some BIG things in their respective communities - not for the fame of a church or denomination - but for the fame of the name of Jesus.'

'This is a very exciting time for me' continues Rowden. 'I feel like I'm starting all over in a sense. I've been around this industry for a while, but for me everything is different now. There's more urgency to the songs I write and the things I do. I want the things that come out of our ministry to be significant and impactful...not just 'plain-jane' stuff.'

Rowden will be touring relentlessly in the New Year in support of his new single and the revolutionary approach to worship, serving others and seeing people cross the line of faith. Watch for periodic promotions on Twitter [www.twitter.com/calebrowden], Facebook [www.facebook.com/calebrowdenmusic], and Blog [calebrowdenlive.squarespace.com]. The latest promotion saw one lucky fan, Shawna Mabe of Columbia, MO, receive Caleb's very own custom Fender Telecaster guitar that he has played for more than two years on stage all over the country.
