Los Angeles, CA (July, 2018) -- Control Vol. 1 by pop artist Joel Vaughn, is out now on DREAM Records.  The five-song EP album is a beautiful representation of Joel's evolution as an artist.  He co-produced songs on the album with Patrick Mayberry, Justin Morgan and Carter Frodge and co-wrote with Ross King, Benji Cowart, Justin Morgan, Paul Duncan, Patrick Mayberry, Daniel Doss, Carter Frodge, and Rebekah White.

Control Vol. 1 is the follow up to his two past projects on DREAM titled, Kinetic and Surrender as well as his single offering to the God's Not Dead: A Light In Darkness soundtrack where he also made a cameo in the film.  His first single "Pray It Up" recently debuted on the Billboard Christian National Audience Chart and is currently at #45.  The song has also garnered over 800,000 streams across all retail accounts.

Reviews have been coming in on Control Vol. 1.  Check out what everybody's saying about the album:

"Joel's playful summery tones make Control an absolute delight to listen to while his meaningful lyrics worm their way deep into your soul. His 'control' over his delivery is masterful and Control must be considered a must purchase." - JesusWired.com
