Christian music singer, Chris Tomlin is releasing a special edition CD/DVD edition of his chart topping album "Burning Lights". "Gods Great Dance Floor" is one of the songs that will be on his special edition DVD and was filmed in Colorado at the Red Rock Amphitheatre. Chris Tomlin is known for his 80+ songs that are continually sang in churches across the country and homes everywhere. As rocking as Chris Tomlin's concerts can be, his main point of coming to a huge arena or amphitheatre is to get you to worship God.
"I strive to write something that people can sing , that people want to sing, and that people need to sing." stated the King of Worship. Chris Tomlin's mulitple different albums hold a variety of praise and worship songs that can relate to just about anybody. Tomlin is said to be the 'King of Worship' when it comes to most albums and songs heard on a regular basis. His music is simple, devotional, and extremley easy on the ears as he takes you to another place during his songs. "We would say that Chris is the most prolific songwriter in the United States now, in this past decade". stated Howard Rachinski, CEO of Christian Copyright Licensing International, the company that tracks what songs are sang in church around the world.
Back in 2012, CCLI reportedly paid out over $40 million to artists and musicians that songs were played throughout churches, and Tomlin got a pretty good chunck of that money. He has a total of 128 songs that he has either wrote or co-wrote that are currently in the churches being sung every Sunday and Wednesday mornings/nights. Rachinski stated that his best guess would be that there are nearly 20-30 million people singing Tomlin's songs on a given Sunday. That makes over 120,000 churches". Chris Tomlin is currently on tour right now on 24+ city wide "Burning Lights" Tour. Alongside of him, Louie Giglio and DJ Promote will be featured during the tour as well, and will most likely be seen on the new "Burning Lights" CD/DVD.
