This week is not a usual playlist. Normally we’d be playing the best and some of the very newest contemporary Christian music from Catholic artists only. But this Sunday marks the start of the new Liturgical year and the Advent season, so instead for the next several weeks we’ll be playing the best and yes, some of the newest Advent and Christmas music available, including some brand new releases. In fact, I got wind that new Christmas music might be coming from Tori Harris, that’s not confirmed yet, but if it happens, you can bet we’ll be playing it!
Our playlist this features music from Matt Maher, Marian Grace, Ike Ndolo, Curtis Stephan, the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of the Apostles, and The Boy’s Choir of St Paul’s Choir School too. Leading off playlist #64 is Matt Maher with “Come to the Water – I Will Run” which is from a compilation album titled “Songs for Advent and Christmas”

Our Catholic Playlist song for the week of November 17, 2014 is “Come Alive” from PJ Anderson. PJ is a Christian singer/songwriter originally from Chicago but now calls Nashville, TN home. He’s been traveling and inspiring youth all around the country at concerts, youth conferences and retreats. Most notably, PJ has led music at Mega-Workshops at the National Catholic Youth Conference (NCYC) as well as leading worship at Catholic Heart Work Camp (CHWC) for the past 6 summers. PJ has a unique ability to connect with his listener through songs that touch those places deep down in your heart where joy and pain reside in harmony. PJ’s current studio album ‘RISE’ is his 4th and he says that “The theme of RISE is rooted in the call of God to rise and love as He loves; to serve as He serves.” Our song of the week ‘Come Alive’ echoes that call to rise and it’s our Catholic Playlist Song of the Week – “Come Alive”, from PJ Anderson:

Be sure to check out the next Catholic Playlist show coming out this Friday, Nov 21 for the debut of Josh Blakesley Band’s new single “Grateful” from their soon to be released album! We got our hands on it a little early because we backed their Kickstarter project and we can’t wait to share it with you.
According to the band, “Grateful” will be released to the rest of the world on iTunes on Tuesday Nov 18 so you can pick it up then if you like. The artwork, pictures, and full album details are all still in the works, so we don’t have any other news to share yet – but we do know that the video for “Grateful” includes some amazing footage from submissions provided by listeners and fans.
Sharing the joy of the Gospel by playing the best and some of the very newest contemporary Christian music exclusively from Catholic artists is what the Catholic Playlist is all about.

Please join us in welcoming our new featured artist in playlist #62, Matt Faley. Matt just released his debut EP “The Only Light” and we are pleased to play a song from it this week. According to his website, mattfaley.com, Matt works full-time in Catholic young adult ministry and uses this platform to share the gifts and talents he has been given to re-invigorate the Gospel for college students and young adults. He currently serves as the Director of Young Adult and College Campus Ministry for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis and has been in full-time ministry for over five years. Matt also uses the art, beauty and transformative power of music and songwriting to speak to the heart of the Gospel. Just as the love of Jesus is all-encompassing and universal, Matt writes honest reflections that do not just scratch the surface, but speak deeply to the heart of every person. Matt uses the joys, the journey, the suffering and the redemption of his own life in Christ draw people closer to the story written on their own heart.
And that certainly comes through in the music on his debut EP titled ‘The Only Light’. We’re pleased to play the title track from his new EP, “The Only Light” in this week’s show.
