Renowned for their impassioned interpretations of timeless hymns and classic songs of faith, 11-time GMA Dove Award-winning vocal trio Selah is celebrating 25 years in Christian music with the release of two highly anticipated full-length recordings this fall.
Adding to an unparalleled discography showcasing Selah's signature take on some of the most popular Inspirational songs of all time, Greatest Hymns Vol. 3 bows on October 14 alongside At This Table: A Christmas Album. Both projects--releasing via the group's label, 3Cre8tive--will be available exclusively at national retail, with various singles slated for digital release.
Selah's third Greatest Hymns compilation delivers 13 piano-driven arrangements of genre-spanning favorites. The project's forthcoming single, "Put Your Hand In The Hand," a rootsy, blues-infused cover of the 1970s pop-gospel classic, is slated to hit streaming platforms on September 30.
"I am so excited about both projects we're releasing this year, but the hymns album is especially close to my heart," shares Selah's Allan Hall. "It harkens back to the spirit of our very first album, Be Still My Soul, which was filled with hymns and classics set to simple piano/vocal arrangements. We wanted to involve our fans in selecting the songs this time around, so after receiving thousands of responses with many wonderful suggestions, we narrowed it down to the most requested songs and got to work. I'm pleased with how the project has turned out, and I truly hope our fans enjoy it. This album was made for them with much thought, care, and love."
Continuing a milestone year, Selah is also set to release At This Table: A Christmas Album on October 14--their first new holiday recording since the 2002 classic Rose Of Bethlehem. Showcasing a range of modern and traditional songs of the season, the 10-song set was produced by Jason Kyle Saetveit and Chris Bevins. The lushly orchestrated title cut--co-penned and originally recorded by stage and screen star Idina Menzel--encapsulates the album's theme, welcoming listeners into a poignantly reflective Christmas collection.
"I first heard 'At This Table' in a coffee shop, and it stopped me in my tracks," remembers Selah's Amy Perry. "It so resonated with me because I'm from a large family with several siblings adopted through the foster care system--and now my own family is on a foster care journey as well. No family sees eye-to-eye all the time, but my parents were adamant that no matter the differences, their home and hearts were always open to us. That's a picture of how Jesus feels about us, too. No matter the circumstance, we are always welcome at His table."
