Michael Hughes Watson Releasing New Single 'O for a Thousand Tongues'
From the sounds and talent behind Above The Golden State and Bethel Music comes an expression of worship music standing in resistance to the current trend. Michael Hughes Watson, an independent artist, songwriter, worship leader, and teacher pursuing innovative, prophetic music to challenge and inspire this generation, releases his new single 'O for a Thousand Tongues' on Feb 27, 2020.
He recently recorded a version of Charles Wesley's Hymn for use in contemporary worship. The Hymn written in 1740 draws inspiration from the idea that; if I had I a thousand tongues I would praise Him [God] with them all.
The music is a fusion between the likes of Sleeping At Last and Bethel Music Artist. It's a perfect mixture of a relatable melody, honest lyrics and familiar sounds. The songs encourage the worshiper to celebrate their salvation in Christ.
Co produced with Matt Ogden (Bethel Music), mixed by Chris Greely (Bethel Music), gives each song a sonic quality that worshipers have fallen in love with. Past songs co-written with well-known worship artist- Evan Wickham, Ryan Smith and Matthew Zigenis.
Michael's music via Above The Golden State reached top 20 twice on the AC charts and landed singles on tv and film, including the WOW 2008 compilation. Michael has been featured twice in Worship Leader Magazine and Song Discovery for his co-writes with artist Mathew Zigenis (All Your People Sing and Come To The Waters). His latest title track Hanging onto Every Word That You Say has had over a half a million streams to date.
