The Death of Death album is an artful, theological contribution to Christianity that uses song to lift the beautiful, powerful gospel.
A note from Charlie:
Greetings my friends! Thanks so much for considering the Charlie Hall Band Kickstarter. For the last two years I have immersed myself into faith, community and re-embracing the Gospel with all of its power and beauty. In doing this I have been deeply moved to contribute an artful, theological, worshipful work to Christianity through music. Even now we are in the studio beginning the production and recording of a twelve-song album titled The Death of Death (not a heavy metal record). I have been writing prayers and worship for the church for over 20 years now and am so grateful to be able to contribute even a small part in congregational sacred music and in giving my broken friends words to say and thoughts to wrestle through with God. Thank you again for your support for my first independent record in 12 years.
-Charlie
About Charlie:
After honing his skills with rap tunes, and country songs about broken hearts, Charlie began to write in earnest, songs built around his own, and the people of his community’s visions and wrestlings with Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and living like Jesus in a fragmented world. He began this journey of songwriting in 1992, becoming part of the Passion movement in 1997, and has been an integral voice alongside them since, seeing incredible things happen in musical worship and acts of justice with this eclectic group of folks. He has seen many hairstyles come and go, and he has seen the world of music in the Church grow and shape-shift in myriad pulses and patterns. Charlie currently serves at Frontline Church as the Worship and Arts Director in Oklahoma City. Charlie has written songs for the church such as Marvelous Light, Center, Mystery, All We Need, Chainbreaker, and Give Us Clean Hands.
Through this his heart beat and his mind raced to give song to the ever-moving landscape of worship music, taking in the dappled expressions of hymnody that the Church bears as fruit in places from San Diego, to Chicago; from Kyiv, to Kampala. The many colors and collections of the people of God give his songs a multiple-voiced concern for the often-forgotten ones: who offend our propriety, who make our consumption uncomfortable, who might just show us the most scattered parts of ourselves. Charlie works to compose in a way that invites our embrace of the broken into our adoration of God, that those streams are not separate, but essential together, to offer a pleasing song to God, as incense, as offering.
