Andy Calvert has been blessed with a voice that is pleasant and easy on the ears. He easily articulates words like a feather changing direction on gusts of wind. Pure in tone and devoid of grit, Andy&#8217;s vocals have a slight waver and trill that is both warm and bright.<\/p>\n<p>The two original songs, written by Andy Calvert and Todd Burkhalter, &#8220;Relentless&#8221; and &#8220;Kingdom Come&#8221; are worship oriented songs, that both end in proclamations that God is holy. Both utilize dreamy and extended reverb in parts that give a depth and feel that magnifies the subject of a high and exalted God. The opening guitar riff for &#8220;Relentless&#8221; is a beautiful string of notes dancing like stars in the night sky.\u00a0 The three other songs on this album, &#8220;Oh How I Need You,&#8221; &#8220;Heaven&#8217;s Song,&#8221; and &#8220;Great Are You Lord,&#8221; are excellent recreations that will not disappoint the listener. Andy&#8217;s version of &#8220;Great Are You Lord,&#8221; is not to be missed.<\/p>\n<p>Andy Calvert is a worship leader, helping out several churches in the Rome, GA area.<\/p>\n<p>Pick up his latest EP on noisetrade and check out his previous releases on <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/andycalvertmusic\">Soundcloud<\/a>!<\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"fitvids-video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Relentless - Andy Calvert\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0zs9OQeqb9c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/andycalvertmusic.com\/\">http:\/\/andycalvertmusic.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/andy.calvert3\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/andy.calvert3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The latest EP from Andy Calvert is an offering of two originals surrounded by three familiar worship songs!
