Written by: Kelly Meade (July 21, 2015)

Based at Bethel Church in Redding, California, the team of musicians, singers & songwriters that make up Bethel Music has proven to be one of the powerhouses of modern worship. Their original songs such as “You Make Me Brave” and “It Is Well” have touched the lives of many around the world. With the release of Without Words: Synesthesia, listeners are treated to an instrumental collection of some of today’s favorite worship songs as well as musical interludes which weave the album together forming a tapestry of soothing sounds to calm a restless mind. Throughout the album we hear beautiful pieces that captivate the audience with a unique blend of instruments breathing new life into familiar songs such as “It Is Well”, “This Is Amazing Grace”, “Oceans”, “Seas Of Crimson,” “You Make Me Brave” and “In Over My Head”. Hearing these performed without vocals shows that God can use music to have a strong effect on people as each track encourages you to be still in His presence. Without Words: Synesthesia is the second album of this type that Bethel Music has released following 2013’s Without Words which garnered much critical praise. Whether you’re in need of a something to help ease a stressful day or a soundtrack to serve as a backdrop for your quiet time, this melodic masterpiece will be a welcome addition to your music library.
