Lisa McClendon’s New Project

Lisa McClendon is a gospel nominated recording artist, songwriter, poet and mental health advocate. McClendon entered the gospel music scene in 2002 with her debut album, My Diary, Your Life.  I was introduced to McClendon’s music from her second album, Soul Music, with hits like, Hey Now, Breathe, and The Truth Is. (my absolute favorite) Her voice and vibe had me bumping that song in my car daily.  She is an anointed voice of Florida.  She grew up a preacher’s kid.  So, no matter how funky, groovy or jazzy her sound is, her lyrical roots are faith-based.  Lisa McClendon’s scriptural messages, with personal transparency, have created a next generation of loyal gospel music listeners.  Which has earned her a few Dove and Stellar nominations.  As she reprises her music career with a new EP.  She released the first single titled Perfect, now available for purchase.  Her reception was well received.  She is back on the road performing, and it’s nothing but love and positive energy.

Single Still Gon Trust

Joshua Rogers, a Greeleyville, South Carolina native has returned to the gospel charts again with his single Still Gon Trust Still Gon Trust is a personal testament of how Joshua endured during the height of the pandemic.  How appropriate is his song during this time of war between Russia and Ukraine Joshua Rogers understands how disruptions caused by life can place you in despair.  One day, everything is good and then life pulls the rug from under your feet.  Still Gon Trust is relevant for anyone who has faced or is facing life challenges.  Whether you are a believer or someone who is in need of hope for a better tomorrow.  We thank God for a joyful noise in the air.  Still Gon Trust is a friendly reminder, no matter what the circumstances are, as a believer we can place our trust in the word of God.  Taking our hands off and allowing our faith to activate in something greater than ourselves.
