On Howard Gripp's new single "Strong," he's testifying with forward-looking faith and a rock edge that won't back down.
The song doesn't mince words about its purpose. Gripp's raspy, gritty vocals propel the message forward with urgency while soaring worship-sized hooks lift the track into something that is at once deeply personal and universally inviting. It serves as an anthem of resiliency in hard times through faith. Gripp's story behind the music makes "Strong" all the more compelling. Years of playing in the secular rock world honed his skill, but a life-altering encounter with Jesus redirected his purpose. The quality of that transformation is abundant in every chord of this song. The force isn't simply rock energy, it's the sound of belief.
The production reflects the theme of unyielding strength, from the opening riff to the swelling chorus. The guitars crash like waves on stone, the rhythm section grounds things, and Gripp's voice soars with the knowledge of what it feels like to be broken down, but also how your spirit can change.
"Strong" isn't just a performance, it's an act of worship, leathered and gritty. Whether you're wading through hardship or just longing for a song that declares faith louder than fear, Howard Gripp has done your soul good with this one.
