REDDING, CA – GRAMMY Nominated, internationally renowned artist collective Bethel Music has today released their much-anticipated album Simple. The eleven-song offering features some familiar Bethel Music artists as well as some special guests who have come together to create a body of work that is deeply relatable and speaks to the simplicity of life. Recorded live at Bethel Music’s own Pine Street Studio in Redding, CA, most of the songs on Simple were written in a time of reflection of the past few years where priorities shifted to everyday life and being in the moment. Listen to Simple HERE.

“These songs came from artists that wanted to find something that wasn’t complicated,” producer Dan Mackenzie explains. “It was ‘here’s what this song is, and here’s what it means to me.’ It didn’t feel contrived or wrapped up in another motive. This is a special record.”

To celebrate the release of Simple, Bethel Music has also released a video for “Let My Life Be Worship” which is led by Jenn Johnson and Michaela Gentile. The moving song is an authentic testimony and prayer that our lives are being lived in a way that can be viewed as worship to the Lord. It’s a mantra to be taken into everyday life. Watch the video for “Let My Life Be Worship” HERE.

 
About Bethel Music

Bethel Music is a community of worshipers pursuing the presence of God and capturing fresh expressions of worship out of Redding, California. Bethel Music has grown from being a local church music ministry to a global outreach made up of a collective of songwriters, artists and musicians. Jenn Johnson, President of Bethel Music, co-founded the collective along with her husband Brian Johnson in 2001. Together Brian and Jenn raise up worshipers who take hold of their true identity and pursue intimacy with God above all else.

Bethel Music has released 15 corporate worship albums, each carrying a unique theme and expression of worship to inspire and unite the global church. The label has been nominated for 14 Dove Awards in 2019 alone, and awarded eight Dove Awards as a whole. Over the years they have contributed to multiple GRAMMY Nominations including Cory Asbury’s “Reckless Love” in 2017 and Dante Bowe’s “Voice of God” and “joyful” in 2022. “Reckless Love” also garnered an ASCAP Christian Award for “Song of the Year.” In addition, the music label was awarded three other ASCAP Christian Awards including “Raise A Hallelujah” from their latest album VICTORY which reached Christian Radio’s #1 single of the year, and “Stand in Your Love” reaching #2 on Billboard Christian radio charts. As a youthful label of 13 years, Bethel Music has broken records, ranking in CCLI’s top 25 songs for several consecutive years. “This Is Amazing Grace” has ranked in the top 25 since 2014, “No Longer Slaves” since 2015, “The Lion and the Lamb” since 2016, “Reckless Love” appeared in the top 10 since 2018, with “Living Hope” following closely since 2018, and “Goodness to God” landing at No. 1 for most of 2021and off and on for 2022. Hitting its stride over the last year, Bethel Music has continually ranked at #6 in the top 10 radio market share.
