Seven-time GRAMMY winner TOBYMAC's seventh studio recording, LIFE AFTER DEATH has debuted as Billboard's No. 1 Christian and Gospel record this week. The project's current single, "The Goodness," is also topping Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart.

Also last week, TOBYMAC hosted a free, one-night only, 360° immersive audio and visual experience of LIFE AFTER DEATH, sponsored by Amazon Music. Held at Nightscape in downtown Nashville, fans saw the colorful artwork from the record via 360° projection mapping and customizable pixel lighting as they listened to TobyMac share his story of writing the album. Special tracks and moments were highlighted along the way and exclusive merch along with customized, painted shirts by TobyMac’s nephew Chris Palau were offered to fans only available that night. Take a look at the recap video here.
