Franklin, Tenn. (February 12, 2014) - Centricity Publishing expands its offerings with the creation of the new label, CentricWorship, under the expert guidance of Steve Rice, VP of Centricity Publishing and founder of CentricWorship. The label's debut release, ALL THE SAINTS: Live From the CentricWorship Retreat--No. 1, is set for digital release on March 11, 2014.

Expanding on the core mission of Centricity Publishing, which exists to nurture the gifts and expand the influence of its songwriters throughout the world with songs of hope, encouragement, and good news, Rice founded CentricWorship to publish and release songs specifically relevant to the Church and church ministries. "Through CentricWorship, we want to provide engaging and encouraging songs that exalt the name of Jesus, with sound Biblical doctrine. Our prayer is that these new songs will assist people in their prayer and worship as they continue the journey with us, closer and closer to the heart of Jesus," says Rice.

CentricWorship's first offering, All The Saints: Live from the CentricWorship Retreat-No. 1, is an authentic live worship experience featuring 12 of the country's best songwriters and worship leaders. Helmed by Rice as executive producer, the live EP was birthed during a week-long retreat of songwriting and worship in the Cascade Mountains. Those joining Rice for this intimate worship experience include Michael Farren (Pocket Full Of Rocks, writer of "Let It Rain"), Jared Anderson (Desperation Band, writer of "Great I Am" and "Amazed"), Henry Sealy (PlanetShakers), Seth Mosley (Billboard's #1 Christian Producer of 2013 and #3 Christian writer of 2013), Anthony Skinner (writer of "Your Love Never Fails"), Mia Fieldes (Hillsong), James Tealy (writer of Kari Jobe's hit, "We Are"), and others.

ALL THE SAINTS: Live From the CentricWorship Retreat--No. 1 includes eight of the anointed tracks that were recorded during the mountain retreat. With its own exceptional blend of eclectic and Americana sound composed atop flawless doctrine, the EP remains accessible to both listeners and church musicians worldwide. "We went back to our roots on this project," Rice explains. "Musically it's organic, authentic, intimate and quite song driven."

"All The Saints," the EP's title track written by James Tealy, Michael Farren, and Henry Seeley, includes a powerful new chorus added to the rich hymn, "Holy, Holy, Holy," which brings a fresh, modern feel to the beloved standard. In the EP's first single "Nothing But the Blood," co-written by worship leader Corey Voss and producer Michael Farren, solid Biblical doctrine is interwoven beautifully with memorable melodies and traditional hymn-like elements, creating an instant classic for now and years to come.

Through these and other captivating songs, ALL THE SAINTS: Live From the CentricWorship Retreat--No. 1 penetrates the heart of the listener, regardless of age. "CentricWorship is about moving hearts of all ages to express their deepest felt worship of the One who is worthy of it all," says Steve. "For us, this is about doing something that will serve the body of Christ in lifting up our Lord together."
