2 DECEMBER 2017 WOW HALL NOTES FIND US ONLINE: WWW.WOWHALL.ORG JOSH GARRELS FROM PAGE 1 from Portland, Oregon, weaves the Christmas narrative through a bevy of medieval songs and sounds, giving the story a new light, and breath- ing fresh air into what qualifies as ‘Christmas Music’. “Josh Garrels is no longer Christian music’s best kept secret. As of the writing of this review, this album is number four on the overall iTunes album chart, showing that Garrels is making headway in the music world without the help of a record company or industry appara- tus of any kind. And The Light Came Down is a deserving album of this wide audience, and one of the most creative, epic and beautiful Christmas albums you will hear in many years.” Worshipmusician.com notes: “If there’s one word to describe Josh Garrels albums, ‘meaningful’ would have to be it… On this outing, his most explicitly Christian, Garrels eschews ‘chestnuts roasting’ style holiday sentiment. In its place, we get gorgeous renditions of well- known carols (‘Silent Night’), selections from the gospel repertoire (‘The Virgin Mary Had One Son’) and modern hymnody (the eschato- logical ‘O Day of ’), ambient instrumentals, an obscure British feasting song (‘The Boar’s Head’), and several Garrels originals, all performed in his difficult-to-pigeonhole baroque/folk/soul style and aching tenor.” SLOW MAGIC By Frankie Kerner mine.
