Jonathan McReynolds — The Gathering, Houston, 2022

Why this recording

Streamed live on July 27, 2022 and kept online by The Gathering Houston, the video comes straight from the organiser: the worship community filmed the night that marked its launch. Its 53 minutes amount to a complete set rather than a string of excerpts. It shows Jonathan McReynolds in the setting of a young local church, a few months after the Tiny Desk (Home) Concert he shared with Mali Music for NPR in December 2021.

Filmed live concert by Jonathan McReynolds at the launch event of The Gathering, a Houston-based worship community (Texas, USA), in 2022. A major, multi-award-winning singer-songwriter of contemporary gospel, Jonathan McReynolds blends spirituality, personal writing and soul textures in an intimate set carried by his voice and guitar. This live concert restores the gospel form’s blend of the meditative and the communal, between worship and confidence. In the absence of a verified official setlist for this specific performance, no programme details are reproduced here. A gospel full concert to enjoy for lovers of contemporary Christian music, soul and sincere live captures. An ideal live for discovering one of the most respected gospel voices of the 2020s, in a warm and unifying setting.
