The Gettys - Strong Support for New Album

Fall 2013 is generating even stronger support for the talented modern hymnwriters, Keith & Kristyn Getty.  They released their first live album, Keith & Kristyn Getty: Live At The Gospel Coalition to several rave reviews that include; About.com, It's a moment, a movement and a message that you don't just listen to - you live!, Christian Post/Breathecast, If music is likened to food, Keith and Kristyn's is filet mignon, and Soul-Audio.com, Keith & Kristyn Getty are definitely treasures of our world. There have also been high-profile media interviews with NPR All Things Considered, Moody Radio/ In The Marketplace with Janet Parshall, The Janet Mefferd Show, American Family Radio/JJ and Ron In The Morning, WFIL/The Mark Daniels Show, World Christian Broadcasting, among many others.

With the release of the new album and these sterling accolades, Keith and Kristyn Getty are gearing up for their Hymns for the Christian Life 20-city fall tour that launches on Sunday, September 29. The first date in Anaheim Hills, CA is already sold-out with several other dates close to being sell-outs also. The final stop on the tour, November 12, will be on the legendary stage of the Grand Ole Opry at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN.

Another honor for the talented couple was their third career Dove nomination in August for their 2011 album, Hymns for a Christian Life, in the Inspirational Album category. Worship Leader magazine called the project, an extraordinary new album, with Music News Nashville saying, All in all, a stunning collection! The album, which includes duets with Alison Krauss, Ricky Skaggs, and Moya Brennan, features the song, "Christ Is Risen, He Is Risen Indeed," that reached top five on Billboard's Soft AC chart earlier this year.

"Kristyn and I are grateful for the acknowledgement of this album," says Keith Getty. "For two kids who come from the other side of the Atlantic, and who have now made their home in Nashville, we continue to be pleased and thankful for the support we find here in the states. Among our new Nashville friends are Charlie Peacock and Ed Cash who, along with our Irish friend, Fionan de Barra, produced the album and brought every song to life in a most refreshing way."
