| Jason Gray Releases Greatest Hits (Acoustic) AlbumFeatures New Acoustic Recordings of Gray's Biggest Hits Accumulating Over 131 Million Streams to Date
Splitting producing responsibilities evenly with his son, Kipper Gray, the acoustic album includes Gray's first hit radio single from his 2007 debut album All the Lovely Losers, "Blessed Be;" one of his highest streaming songs from 2011's A Way to See in the Dark, "Remind Me Who I Am;" the award-winning track from 2016's Where the Light Gets In, "Sparrows;" and nine more favorites spanning Gray's eight full-length Centricity Music albums. "The acoustic Greatest Hits album started simply: I wanted to re-record a stripped-down version of 'Sparrows' to go with my children's book [Sparrows (https://store.centricitymusic.com/ "Though the album is acoustic, we wanted it to feel full—rhythm, low end, some sparkle—with the acoustic guitar at the center: percussion from the guitar body, discreet bass and a little kick where it made sense," continues Gray. "The sparkle came from organic instruments such as dulcimers, banjos, strings, piano, etc. Each of these songs came alive in a new way. "Frederick Buechner once said, 'The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet.' That's what my new album celebrates: the holy ground where my deep gladness—sharing these songs and stories, mining meaning together—meets the deep hunger of those who find something nourishing in what I have to offer," says Gray. "I hope we've made something you can fall in love with all over again." https://youtu.be/ Well-known for his acoustic performances on the highly rated, writers-round radio show Acoustic Storytime (https://www.facebook.com/ For all the latest Jason Gray tour, music, news and more information, go to https://jasongraymusic.com End
