NASHVILLE, TENN. (MARCH 25, 2022) On the heels of massive success of his first single “God, Turn It Around” which is ranked #2 at K-LOVE this week and among their top-three most-requested songs, the song continues to climb the airplay and audience A/C charts and Mediabase Christian Airplay Top 30 chart and remains in the top 15 on the Billboard Christian Airplay chart with streaming numbers topping 21 million. Today, Gotee recording artist Jon Reddick has released his first full-length album also called “God, Turn It Around.”

The album is a mix of studio and live versions of previously released songs as well as two never-before released live versions of “The Power of Your Name” and “Keep Me Near.” Release day for this project celebrated more than 20 editorial playlists on on launch of the album. A live video performance of “The Power of Your Name” was released on YouTube today.

In addition to the new tracks, this album includes three different versions of the current radio hit “God, Turn It Around.” There’s a studio version produced by Paul Moak (House of Heroes, Mat Kearney, Third Day), a live version co-produced by Danny Duncan (Israel Houghton, CeCe Winans, Michael McDonald) and Reddick and a live, co-produced version by Duncan and Reddick featuring Matt Maher.

Reddick says he continues to be amazed at how the Lord is using a song that came out of a season of watching Him work all things together in his own life.

“Seeing how that connects with people from all walks of life is never lost on me,” he said. “Hearing the stories of how He has been using this song has truly been one of the greatest gifts in my life. I am so excited to share these different versions of ‘God, Turn It Around’ along with other songs we’ve written and recorded both in the studio and live in this debut release!”

The album’s track listing is as follows:

“You Keep Hope Alive” 
“God, Turn It Around”
“Glory and Majesty” 
“The Power Of Your Name”
“Keep Me Near” 
“In The Room” 
“God, Turn It Around” (feat. Matt Maher) 
“The Power Of Your Name” (Live) 
“Keep Me Near” (Live)
“In The Room” (Live) 

“God, Turn It Around” (Radio Version) 
 

Gotee founder and artist TobyMac says he is not surprised by the success of Reddick’s songs and knows these new additions are going to make just as meaningful an imprint on listener’s lives.

“Jon Reddick has been my worship leader for almost a decade now,” shares TobyMac. “He’s not only a gifted singer who expresses soul and emotion as well as anyone I’ve ever heard, but also a songwriter whose lyrics awaken my heart to hope through God’s love.”

Reddick is also one of the worship pastors at Church of the City in Franklin, TN, working alongside Chris McClarney and led by pastor Darren Whitehead. The Church of the City live recordings of “You Keep Hope Alive” and “God, Turn It Around” that feature Reddick became Top 30 Mediabase Christian Audience radio singles in 2020 and 2021 and top songs on the Air1: Worship Now radio network.

In 2020 Mandisa recorded and released a version of his song, “You Keep Hope Alive” that also featured Reddick and became a Top 15 Billboard Christian Airplay and AC radio single and Top 50 single of the year. He has performed at LakeWood Church, multiple IF Gatherings, the Unite to Fight Poverty event and the fall 2021 TobyMac Hits Deep Tour alongside Tauren Wells, Jordan Feliz, We Are Messengers and label-mates Cochren & Co. and Terrian.

Reddick has also signed on to join the KLOVE Christmas tour this fall. Dates, locations and the lineup for the tour will be announced soon.

ABOUT JON REDDICK

Worship pastor and songwriter, Jon Reddick, has a heart for the church and the songs that pour out from congregations into world. Throughout his writing career he’s intentionally composed lyrics that speak about redemption and hope in a way that impacts cross cultural narratives of a generation hungry for healing. Finding hope through music has long been part of Reddick’s makeup. Growing up the son of a pastor and the church pianist in Memphis, TN, music was woven into Reddick’s DNA from the start. During college, he cut his songwriting teeth writing songs for and leading a contemporary gospel group. After his college years, Reddick got into church work, leading worship for a church in Memphis and eventually making his way to Texas. In both places, Reddick leaned into bridge-building across racial and generational lines, working to bring churches and cultures together under one faith umbrella.

ABOUT GOTEE RECORDS

In 1992 a production team of three talented guys with diverse tastes shared a love for music. Producers Joey Elwood and Todd Collins, along with Grammy-winning artist TobyMac, launched Gotee Records in 1994 after unsuccessfully finding a label deal for the R&B trio Out of Eden. With a steady focus on artistry, the new label expanded to reflect the diverse interests of its founders. Within 12 months, Christafari, GRITS, and Johnny Q. Public were signed, easily representing four different music categories: R&B, reggae, rap and rock. In the 20-plus years since Gotee's founding as a record label, it has launched the careers of Relient K, Jennifer Knapp, Sonicflood, Jamie Grace, and more recently Capital Kings, Ryan Stevenson, Hollyn and Aaron Cole. The present day in the Gotee story is much like the label's early days. Through all the changes in a tumultuous music industry, the boutique label's independent spirit is maintained through a steady focus on artist development and diversity.
