The Erwins’ New Project ‘This Is Love’ Slated For April
The Erwins are releasing This Is Love April 9. Hallmarked by The Erwins’ tight family harmonies wrapped in modern musical influences, the new project was produced and arranged by Wayne Haun and features tracks penned by Kenna Turner West, Joseph Habedank, Sue Smith, Tony Wood, Dixie Phillips and Kevin Winebarger, among others. The debut single “The God I Know” from the Texas siblings is set to impact radio in tandem with the album’s April 9 release. A soaring ballad proclaiming Christ’s peace to a pandemic-weary world, “The God I Know” embodies the project’s thematic inspiration found in 1 Corinthians 13:13, “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” In addition, the upbeat album opener “All Of My Help” will be available March 19 as the lead digital single.

The first southern gospel album he ever owned was Brian Free & Assurance’s Live in New York City, and he has purchased every album since. Free said, “When I received the audition info for Jake I was very impressed with his history in music ministry. Having traveled with evangelistic outreaches over the past 12 years, I knew he was a perfect fit for our ministry and that he was the one God had sent to be a member of our BFA family. I love his heart and the love he has for people.”
