UK Band From The Ground Up Release 'Oh, What a Saviour'
From The Ground Up, an Indie Christian Band from Manchester, UK, release 'Oh, What a Saviour', the third single release from their five track debut EP. The song is written as a response to the grandeur and awe of God's ongoing work in us.
It's described as a "whimsical melody is supported by a gorgeous upright piano throughout the track moving the listener into a dramatic proclamation of God's beautiful creation. Helping the listener to reflect on how fearfully and wonderfully we are all made in the image of God. We composed it in 3/4 to emulate how we are all 'constant in the move of His wonder and grace'. Contemplating all that He has done for us, we can only respond with gratitude and proclamation of how beautiful He is."
"After tragically losing our Dad to Covid-19 in December 2020, out of a place of grief and hurt, we decided to start From The Ground Up. It helped us to keep our eyes fixed on God through the trials we were going through", the band explains. "We wrote songs of worship and adoration. Songs that pulled us through the dark place.
Since releasing our previous singles 'Open Arms' and 'Sweet Honey' from our Debut EP, we have been featured on over 70 playlists on Spotify, been interviewed on UCB2 and have grown our instagram over 400% from 76 followers to 335 in just under 3 months (which we know aren't the most amazing numbers, we are literally building... from the ground up)
With an eclectic mixture of influences and styles, 'FTGU' is not bound by one particular 'sound', but instead writing in freedom and with God at the centre."
