On his new single "Revive Us Again," composer and keyboardist Russell A Smith, who performs under the name MrR, achieves the magnificently indistinct space between worship and groove. This music is an invigorating studio creation that takes a bold approach to combining spiritual themes with the groove of Funk and the ferocity of Rock.
"Revive Us Again" bouncing keys and throbbing undercurrents give way to a track that is both soul-stirring and body-moving. Smith's talent lies in creating music that uplifts the soul while holding the listener's attention, a gift rarely seen. Each layer is intentional, helping to build the atmosphere that not only beckons the listener higher but also makes them want to roll their heads, tap their feet, and feel the heartbeat of a song. It's an anthem of renewal, a reminder that revival is not just about big gestures but also about the quiet, personal spark that reignites faith around. On the other hand, it's a daring musical declaration that Christian music can groove, pulse, and move just as broadly as the mainstream.
MrR's vision comes through, music that preaches so much as connects, celebrates, and lifts. "Revive Us Again" is not just a worship song, it's an experience, a party of faith wrapped in hues of Funk and Rock.
Russell A. Smith proves with this release that Contemporary Christian Artists are not bound. It can be colorful and contemporary, even happy-making for listeners inclined toward the sacred spirit, a way to leave them spirited while leaving no one ungratified.
