NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Spotlighting uniquely inspired new arrangements of 11 past and present worship favorites—brought to life by some of the most compelling and diverse voices in the genre today—The Houston Session: Live at the Iron Manor, will be available October 24 from StowTown Records' newest initiative, StowTown Worship Resource.

A groundbreaking celebration of praise spanning styles and bridging generations, the project was recorded earlier this year at the Metro United Worship Conference in Houston. Produced by Matthew Summers (Kirk Franklin, Mac Powell), The Houston Session: Live at the Iron Manor brings together such renowned artists and worship leaders as TaRanda Greene, Alvin Slaughter, Stephen McWhirter, Elevation Worship’s Isaiah “Zeek” Templeton, Jody McBrayer, Durell Comedy, and Linnette Pilar, among others.

Beloved gospel recording artist Alvin Slaughter is featured on the joy-infused debut instant-grat track, “Holy, Holy Holy”—now available on streaming platforms—offering a highly anticipated first taste of the landmark recording. Additional highlights of The Houston Session: Live at the Iron Manor include “Heart of Worship,” TaRanda Greene’s stirring take on the Matt Redman favorite; Stephen McWhirter’s instant classic “Come Jesus Come”; and the popular Psalm 23-inspired “Shall Not Want” as well as the soulful hymn medley “Draw Me Nearer/All Hail The Power” performed by Isaiah “Zeek” Templeton.

“When a multi-generational group of songs is delivered by such a diverse group of worship leaders, my hope is that it represents the Kingdom of God well,” shares powerhouse vocalist and worship leader TaRanda Greene, among the visionaries behind The Houston Session: Live at the Iron Manor. “The Kingdom is diverse in race, age, understanding and style, and we wanted to represent that with this recording.”

“It was a gift to see people from such varied backgrounds come together to create this album, and we’re praying for these songs to bless music programs and congregants alike,” she adds. “We hope the project provides moments of joy, hope and love and that each note will open hearts and bring people into the presence of Jesus.”

“At a time when the Church can feel divided by style or denomination, what happened that night reminded us that worship isn’t a genre, it’s a posture," says StowTown Records/StowTown Worship Resource president Landon Beene of The Houston Session: Live at the Iron Manor recording. "When the family of God sings together again, Heaven takes notice.”

StowTown Worship's The Houston Session: Live at the Iron Manor is among the debut releases from StowTown Worship Resource, the newly minted initiative of industry leader StowTown Records. Offering churches, worship teams, and choir directors exclusive access to a broad catalog of worship music, hymn arrangements, and digital tools designed to meet the unique needs of modern worship, StowTown Worship Resource is also the label home of the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir and Rock Springs Worship and facilitates strategic partnerships with such names as Prestonwood Worship, TaRanda Greene, Charles Billingsley, Alvin Slaughter, and Babbie Mason, among many others. The mission of StowTown Worship Resource is to unite generations in worship through powerful music that inspires faith, fosters spiritual growth, and encourages heartfelt praise in churches worldwide.

"My heart is deeply committed to the Church, not only to serve it, but to help restore it," states Beene of the impetus for StowTown Worship Resource. "I believe the Church has, at times, contributed to the generational divide by prioritizing stylistic preferences over the greater purpose of worship. This is why StowTown Worship Resource is devoted to equipping the Body of Christ with a broad range of musical resources that span diverse styles. Our desire is to help bridge the gap between generations, fostering unity through worship that transcends sound and centers on Spirit and Truth."
