Hillsong's 'God Is Able' Earns High Chart Placing In First Week
Hillsong's latest live album 'God Is Able' spent all of last week at number 1 on the iTunes Christian & Gospel Album Chart and peaked at number 7 on the iTunes overall Albums Chart, spending most of the past week inside the Top Ten. The album also landed at number 35 on the Billboard Top 200 this week.
Recorded during the Hillsong Conference in November 2010 at the Sydney Entertainment Centre in Australia, 'God Is Able' features 11 brand new songs led by Hillsong worship team members Reuben Morgan, Joel Houston, Ben Fielding, Darlene Zschech and Hillsong United, as well as international teams from London, Stockholm and Cape Town.
For the first time, Hillsong have launched a training initiative on YouTube, releasing videos from 'God Is Able' for musicians to learn how to play the songs on all the primary instruments in a typical band, including: keyboard, drums, guitar and bass. Additionally, Hillsong has recorded acoustic, stripped backed 'Work Tape' versions of the songs on 'God Is Able' as a tool for worship teams to learn the latest songs in a more intimate setting. Both these Work Tapes and musician training videos are releasing on the Hillsong YouTube channel.
Hillsong will take the music and message of 'God Is Able' to the US on a major market tour in November and December, along with music from a Christmas EP releasing in conjunction with the tour.
