Cathy BurtonWith her latest album, south-coast-based singer-songwriter Cathy Burton displays a considerable shift of focus. The songs here are more worship-focussed with explicit lyrics and choruses that wouldn’t be out of place at Soul Survivor or New Day.

Muscially, there is a solid pop-rock thread running throughout the album, veering occasionally in American Idol territory, but generally fitting well into the current mainstream contemporary worship genre, reminding me of Phatfish in their softer moments.

Standout tracks for me included Redeemer (that I may suggest introducing into our reportoire at Church), the Delirious-esqe Songs of Healing and the joyful I Will Choose.

A solid album that deserves exposure as a great worship resource for many churches.
