The Erwins Release “This is Love” Album

This Is Love, the highly anticipated new studio recording from GRAMMY-nominated, Dove Award-winning StowTown recording group THE ERWINS, has now been released. The eight-song collection showcases a genre-spanning sound which has quickly become synonymous with the Texas-based siblings.

Hallmarked by The Erwins’ tight family harmonies wrapped in modern musical influences, This Is Love was produced and arranged by Wayne Haun and features tracks penned by Kenna Turner West, Joseph Habedank, Sue Smith, Tony Wood, Dixie Phillips and Kevin Winebarger, among others.

Debut single “The God I Know” is a soaring ballad proclaiming Christ’s peace to a pandemic-weary world, “The God I Know” embodies the project’s thematic inspiration found in 1 Corinthians 13:13, “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”

“We’ve bathed each of these songs in prayer as we selected and recorded them,” Keith Erwin shares. “It’s essential for us to consider three things with every project we record: we want to make sure Christ is magnified and glorified; that the sound of the album is authentic and something we personally enjoy; and that there’s a song for everyone. No matter someone’s age or what they’re facing in life, we hope our music reminds people of how much Jesus loves and cares for them.”

Joseph Habedank — ‘Goliath’

Joseph Habedank’s latest single, “Goliath”, is something we can all relate to: facing down the giants in our lives. Here’s Joseph talking about the writing of the song:

“After a concert, I like to go back to my hotel room and unwind watching TV. I saw a commercial for a TV show called Goliath that I had never seen before. I thought it was an amazing idea for a Gospel song. I started thinking about all the giants we face in our lives, and I took the idea to Daniel Doss and Sue Smith. I walked into the co-writing session, and told them I wanted to write a song about Goliath. Daniel said, “that’s so crazy. I’m reading a book about Goliath right now.” I just knew it was a God thing.

We wrote this, and I forgot about it. When I’m writing for an album, I typically write 50 to 100 songs. I’ll never forget sitting at the Dallas Airport listening to the demo from Daniel, and I knew we had to cut it even though we had already picked the songs for the Deeper Oceans project. Sue was in the audience the first time I performed this song. She said it was so fun to see the audience react to the last line: I know my Goliath is coming down.

“Many thanks to the DJs that are playing it and to Sue and Daniel for writing it with me.”
