Matt Adler, a singer/songwriter, worship leader, and record producer in San Antonio, TX, has just released an album called '
Collective Worship'. 57 people from across the country participated, helping write and perform these songs. Brian Scoggin and Chris Huffman from Casting Crowns, Stu G from Delirious, and several other artists all joined together to create the project.
Matt has released multiple albums as a solo artist over the last decade. His 2020 release, 'Collective Worship', is a corporate, vertical worship album for the church. This album is a collection of polished studio songs and authentic, raw, live recordings of worshipers from across the region. His songs range from adoration to lament, joy to desperation, faithfulness to faithlessness, all within the context of both original music and reimaginings of old hymns.
"There is such beauty in worshiping collectively - across denominations, cultures, ages, and life seasons. Everyone brings their own personal stories - of victory and defeat, joy and sorrow, anxiety and peace - and yet we can set those things aside, declaring with one voice that Jesus is better. And He is worth it."
