Grady Spencer & the Work - Celebrate (2019)

In 2016 Grady Spencer and the Work released one hell of a record in “The Line Between” and we’ve been eagerly anticipating new tunes ever since! Well, the wait is over! Their third studio album, “Celebrate.” Produced by Austin Jenkins and engineered by Josh Block of Niles City Sound in Fort Worth, the record is equipped with 11 songs of smooth grooves, strong songwriting, and flavorful tunes. Spencer once again delivers a project that seeps into the soul of the listener with each passing play.

What we especially dig is just how personal and authentic the whole thing is. Nothing turns me off more than when I feel like an album, and an artist doesn’t match; (i.e., a middle-aged dude making songs about partying on a backroad). Here you get an intimate account of Spencer’s real life. After listening, you feel like you know Spencer, his family, his thoughts, and his questions. It’s honest, and it’s real, and to me, that’s the best kind of music.

“This album was written purely from the viewpoint of a 30-something-year-old dad/husband who generally is confused and perplexed about what is going on in the world, but ultimately is grounded in the love and comfort that comes from his faith and his family”, Spencer told us.
