But nonetheless, Hymns can bless you, and that’s great. Maybe it’s an over-saturation of the worship market, or maybe it’s because Caleb and Kelsey have recorded tons of covers and I am waiting for something original from the duo, or maybe I don’t resonate with the project because of other reasons I haven’t figured out yet. Joey’s piano playing is superb, and the fact that this release is only piano adds to the intimacy. Granted, Caleb’s a part of Anthem Lights but still… technically and musically this project is great, and vocally both Caleb and Kelsey are on top of their game as they ever could be. If you want to read more about these three albums, you can check out the review here, here and here but I guess the long and short of it is that Caleb and Kelsey’s release now seems unnecessary- given how similar it sounds to Anthem Lights’ hymn renditions. All of those albums were awesome, and it was great that I could hear all four vocalists singing in perfect harmony and singing to timeless classics that I knew and that I grew up with. I guess you should know right off the bat that last year and also the year before Anthem Lights recorded 2 hymns albums- titled Hymns and Hymns II, while the quartet also released Christmas Hymns last year too. Hymns have been around for ages- so are Caleb and Kelsey’s renditions of timeless classics unique and compelling enough to warrant multiple listens? On the heels of their Christmas album Christmas Together, their 2 worship albums Worship and Timeless Worship and their country album God Gave Me You: Country Love Songs the husband and wife duo are treading where no man has ever gone before…no I’m only joking. One such member is Caleb Grimm, one of the four founders of the group (both Allan Powell and Kyle Kupecky were founding members also, before departing a few years ago for various reasons!), and recently he and his wife Kelsey (under the moniker Caleb + Kelsey) unveiled their hymns album, cleverly titled Hymns. And though I myself prefer these guys singing together as Anthem Lights, I reckon right now is the right time for me to talk about one of these members, and the album that released this past week. That they’re four guys who first and foremost are part of a group, but each of them has their own individual sound as well, and they each aren’t afraid to let the whole world know. Each of the four members have also tried their hand at solo material- and that is what I find most impressive of all. We’ve reviewed albums and songs from these guys many times throughout the existence of this site- and if you don’t know who Caleb, Chad, Joey and Spencer are, then I guess you ought to read our reviews on the band (on this one page here!)- but for those of you who can’t be bothered clicking on another link, let me just say that the quartet (Spencer Kane, Joey Stamper, Chad Graham and Caleb Grimm), have recorded plenty of stellar original songs and worthy cover melodies and medleys as well. Hymns Medley: Amazing Grace / Great Is Thy Faithfulness / Be Thou My Vision / Holy Holy Holy / I Need Thee Every Hour / It Is Well / How Great Thou Artīy now you would have probably known who Anthem Lights is by now.Grimm is one-half of the duo Caleb & Kelsey, a partnership with his wife, Kelsey, who was formerly part of the Christian pop band 1GN.Caleb + Kelsey– Hymns ( Amazon mp3/ iTunes).Kane, who had been singing since he was 5, released the solo album Runaway in 2014.

Their first effort as Anthem Lights was a self-titled 2011 LP that reached No. The foursome changed its name after releasing a 2009 EP.They recruited Caleb Grimm and Kyle Kupecky, also from Liberty, to join the group. Graham was co-writing a solo project with Powell, a friend from their time at Liberty University, when they decided the material was better suited to a vocal group.Singer Chad Graham formed Christian pop vocal group Anthem Lights with Alan Powell in 2007 under the name Yellow Cavalier.
