Steve Green - Hold Fast (2018)

Gospel singer Steve Green began in the gospel industry during the mid-'70s, singing backup vocals and playing bass with Sandi Patti, White Heart and the Gaither Vocal Band. By the early '80s, he had gained a solo contract with Sparrow Records, and his self-titled debut album appeared in 1984. He averaged more than one album per year during the next dozen, with Spanish-language recordings (1987's Tienen Que Saber) and Christmas albums (1987's Joy to the World! and 1996's First Noel) in addition to his usual repertoire. Green has stayed on the Sparrow label for virtually every release, and also concentrates on videos and James Dobson's Focus on the Family as part of his musical ministry. Morning Light was released in 1999. Two years later, he and long-time friend/producer Phil Naish captured Green's personal reflection on Woven in Time. ~ John Bush.
