Some songs are designed to be like cotton candy… a burst of fun and flavor – even if not designed to stand the test of time. However some songs are like a rescue ring to a struggling swimmer – and they are there for us exactly when we need them. These are the types of songs that UTR has focused on since we started over 14 years ago. No matter where you find yourself, we are delighted to put beautiful sounds and meaningful lyrics all around you. We are confident that it can only do GOOD.
Curator’s Notes (HSM #20)
One of my goals for this playlist was to feature several artists that we haven’t put on a recent UTR playlist – plus we also added quite a few first-timers to the list. We visit some 20+-year-old songs by Jars of Clay, Steve Taylor, Phil Keaggy, & Switchfoot. We have lots of brand-new releases weaved in as well. And I can’t not mention the new single by (wow) Rich Mullins [from the upcoming live new-to-the-world live album Deep Valley]. My hope is that these songs really strengthen you on your faith journey as we start a new year. (Dave)
