Worship leader and songwriter Tiffany Hudson will release her solo debut album, Hidden Here, on July 21. Celebrating the new project, Hudson has released the title track today, along with a music video for "Hidden Here." Listen here and watch the music video below.
As an award-winning songwriter ("Graves Into Gardens," "Wait On You," "Never Lost," among others), a member of the GRAMMY Award-winning group Elevation Worship, and a worship leader at Elevation Church, Hudson didn't dream of having a solo artist career. It wasn't until she felt an invitation from the Lord in early 2022 that she even considered releasing her own songs.
"After a season of what felt like a creative drought, I sat down at my piano and felt the Lord begin to download songs and themes that felt very important to Him," explains Tiffany Hudson. "This began a journey of sitting with Him, writing, co-writing, and desiring to write on the things He had placed in my heart. I pray that these different themes and sonic treatments would ultimately lead the listener to the true treasure at the end of all this--Jesus."
Hidden Here will be released on Elevation Worship Records (home to Elevation Worship and ELEVATION RHYTHM). This project highlights a personal and devotional style with the various sonic elements weaved throughout the album. The title track draws on poppy musical elements and inspiration from the scripture from Psalm 91, encouraging us to remain hidden in Christ.
She adds, "'Hidden Here' deals with the tension we face in desiring to be seen and known by others. I often think of the secret place when referring to hiddenness. The time with God that no one else sees is often the most sacred and holy. There is such a priceless value in remaining under the shadow of the Almighty. I pray it encourages the listeners to remain hidden in Him and find their true reward in Him. We don't find our reward in external things like opportunity or acknowledgment, but we find, in the hidden place, that Jesus himself is our reward."
Hudson's solo debut also features special guest appearances from worship leaders Steffany Gretzinger, Mitch Wong, and Joe L Barnes. The project is produced by Josh Holiday, Bubele Booi, and Jason Ingram.
