Saturday, July 10, 2004 Award-winning singer/songwriter Steven Curtis Chapman has announced he will be releasing All Things New, his fourteenth record with Sparrow Records, on September 21, 2004." "All Things New is not only the project's title, it's also the theme interwoven throughout the album. Utilizing his unique skills in observation of daily life, as well as scripture reading and prayer, Chapman's conception of All Things New was also partially inspired by sermons from his pastor, and the writings of John Piper and Philip Yancey." "Sharing his thought process on the creation of his fourteenth recording in seventeen years in the music business, Chapman explains, 'Lately I've come to realize that God will forever be making all things new. I'm only starting to know who God really is because He continues to reveal more and more of Himself to me every day. He gives us new seasons, He gives us a new 24 hours each day, He gives us a new sunrise. All of these things continue to remind us that He is the renewer of all things.'" "Underscoring his approach to making this record, Stevem Curtis Chapman took the All Things New title literally. Co producing with his long-time cohort Brown Bannister, upon creating the record he surrounded himself with musicians and an engineer new to the Chapman experience. Recorded in Los Angeles, Trina Shoemaker engineered the project. Her resume includes work with artists such as Sheryl Crow, Emmylou Harris, Joe Cocker and The Neville Brothers. Studio musicians were Lyle Workman, guitar (Lisa Marie Presley, Sheryl Crow), Chris Chaney, bass guitar (Celine Dion, Alanis Morrissette), Matt Chamberlain, drums (Elton John, John Mayer, Faith Hill), George Cochini, guitar (Third Day, Anointed), and Patrick Warren, keyboards (Jewel, Michelle Branch)."
