Created by New Zealand's high-energy worship songwriters, Parachute Band announces their latest CD Technicolor which will be released by Integrity Music in the UK in
October.
Technicolor captures the electrifying and energetic sounds and songs of the New Zealand church. The songs were written with a deep passion about transforming one's life
to that of a Christian. From "Come to the River" to "Living Rain," the songs express liberty in being washed in the revitalising and refreshing water of God.
"Technicolor is about people coming to God, getting washed again, ridding themselves of their sin, and being washed and flaming with colour," said band member Sam de Jong.
The term "technicolour" comes from the three-strip colour prism which is parallel to the three-step process of a Christian described by de Jong.
Parachute Band's determination for spreading the Gospel through music is apparent from their tour dates scheduled for this year. With concerts in Singapore, the Philippines,
Africa and the US, Parachute Band will be ministering to thousands with different religious backgrounds.
Originally founded in 1996 as the "house band" for New Zealand's Parachute Music Festival, Parachute Band released seven albums in ten years including six that were
certified gold in New Zealand. A decade later after the birth of the band, the mantle was passed from one generation to the next.
Last year, the new members of Parachute Band released the critically-acclaimed Road Maps and Revelations. Though the members have changed, the band's mission is still
the same for Omega Levine, Sam de Jong, Simon Moore, Rhys Machelle and Alister Woods: to lead people of all races and ages in worship, using their songs as a tool to see
lives changed and hearts melted before God.
