If you're a fervent fan of modern worship music or a part of the emerging/post-modern church movement, chances are you've heard of Robbie Seay and his band. If not, do yourself a big favor and go track down their debut, Better Days or their latest album, Give Yourself Away. Go on. I won't go anywhere... You back? Great!

Give Yourself Away, the sophomore release from Houston, Tx. worship leader Robbie Seay & Co., is the tremendous follow-up to the band's overlooked 2005 Sparrow debut. Drawing on everything that made Better Days a exceptional, but overlooked debut, producer Tedd T. pushes Robbie, Ryan and Dan to the next level musically and, I suspect, lyrically. Whether it is the effervescent melody and attitude of "Song of Hope" or the encouragement offered in the subtly drowsy "Shine Your Light On Us," each song of Give Yourself Away is a succinct and inspired musical package that deftly avoids triteness, or presentation that is "too neat."

"Robbie Seay possesses one of the greatest voices bestowed upon the human race. Seriously. When you hear it you will understand. It is strange and lush and excessively subtle with all the gravel of humanity resonating within it." If this is how David Crowder describes his fellow Texan and worship leading peer, I don't think my description could do be any better.

Seay is equally as adept in his ability to turn a lyrical phrase. In fact, it is through both his vocals and lyrics that he exhibits a seemingly innate ability to capture the moments when and where human fraility and the awe-inspiring Divine intersect. The combined talent of this trio ensures the music of Give Yourself Away is finely crafted, multi-layered and aptly mirrors the unique mood of each song.

If you are a fan of the Passion Band, Chris Tomlin, the David Crowder Band and Tim Hughes, give some time and money away so you can experience Robbie Seay leading a worship experience.
