Crafting songs that make this happen was the goal with Whispered and Shouted, the follow-up album to Aaron Shust's chart-topping debut Anything Worth Saying. A life-long churchgoer, Shust grew up in Pittsburgh, where he started playing piano at 7. As a teenager, Aaron learned to play the guitar and was influenced by the sounds of the sixties and Motown. Attending Toccoa Falls College, Shust studied music theory, developed an aptitude for the likes of Bach and Mozart, and soaked in the sounds of more recent masters like his favorite band U2. These contemporary influences come to bear on Whispered and Shouted. It's an exploration of new musical territory for what is at its heart another praise and worship album from this exciting newcomer. This record will make you want to sing along whether you are standing in church or riding in your car.
"I feel closest to God whenever I'm leading people in worship, when I can step away from the microphone and it appears that a sea of people are singing to God from the bottom of their hearts and the top of their lungs."

even better than the first!!| Posted July 10, 2007
I think that Whispered and Shouted is even better than his first CD!! Although My Savior My God is still my favorite song, I still easily give Whispered and Shouted 5 stars!!
