April 19, 2024 – Nashville, TN –Red Street Records’ chart-topping CCM group Consumed By Fire dropped a brand new version of their most recent album First Things First, which includes heartfelt stories and messages from the band members leading into each track (listen HERE). With a family lineage devoted to ministry, Consumed By Fire, comprised of brothers Josh, Jordan and Caleb Ward, felt called to share their heart and inspiration behind the project that has taken the Christian music space by storm, earning them their first GMA Dove Award and K-Love Fan Awards nomination. With hits like #2-charted “First Things First,” a climbing top ten single “Walk With Jesus,” and a headlining tour, the First Things First Commentary Album gives listeners a deeper dive into the original thirteen-track album.

Band member Jordan Ward shares, “The idea behind this project was for the three of us to sit down together and open up about the deeper meanings behind these songs that were birthed from one of the most defining chapters in our family’s lives… There’s quite a few ministry moments that happened naturally throughout this commentary album as we sat together and recounted the truths and scriptures that pulled us through our darkest moments.”

The Ward brothers hope that this project connects with listeners in a whole new way, bringing fresh life to every song. Fans across the country have been able to experience the undeniable passion behind the ministry and musical gifting of Consumed By Fire thanks to their nearly free First Things First Unplugged Tour. To see a show in a city near you, visit https://consumedbyfire.com/#tour.

 

About Consumed By Fire

No strangers to the road life, rising Contemporary Christian Music band, Consumed By Fire, are living out the name of their band in a brand-new way. Comprised of Caleb Ward (lead vocals), Jordan Ward (harmonies/percussion), Josh Ward (guitar/harmonies), the three brothers from Oklahoma are living out God’s calling for their lives, to share God’s grace far and wide through music. “If it wasn’t this form of ministry, if it wasn’t music, it would just be something else. Ministry is what we were born to do,” Caleb says. The band’s sound, heavily influenced by the music they grew up on, is thanks in part to their father’s eclectic taste. Filled with honest truths and the band’s honed musicality, “First Things First,” the band’s Top 5 charted radio single, is evidence of Consumed By Fire’s family bond and the unconditional love of both their earthly and heavenly fathers. As their accolades have continued to accumulate, the band has received media attention with spotlights from KLove and Air1 Radio, praising the band for their “deft lyricism and tight harmonies.” With a brand new First Things First album out as well as upcoming headlining tour dates, the band is ready for a new, exciting year of music.
