Brooke Ligertwood Drops ‘Nineveh’ from New Album ‘SEVEN’
Written by G Njuguna on February 10, 2022
GRAMMY Award-winning songwriter, producer, and critically-acclaimed Christian music artist Brooke Ligertwood drops the second single “Nineveh” from her forthcoming live solo album SEVEN. Out now on all digital platforms with an accompanying live performance video, “Nineveh” is written by Ligertwood along with Pastor Steven Furtick and is a narrative journey through the Biblical book of Jonah that concludes with a personal, individual challenge. The piano-driven anthem soars into “God have mercy” refrains that were written into the song from its genesis specifically for a choir to sing—a vision that comes to life through a powerful live ensemble of voices in both the audio and video recordings.
“When Pastor Steven Furtick messaged me in the spring of 2021 and said he and I should write a song called ‘Nineveh,’ the ‘world’ of this song immediately sprung to life in my spirit and we began and completed this work a relatively short time later,” says Ligertwood.
Recorded live in Nashville, TN, SEVEN consists of entirely brand-new worship songs written by Ligertwood and husband/longtime collaborator Scott, Jason Ingram (who co-produced the album with her), Pastor Steven Furtick, Brandon Lake, Phil Wickham, and friends. It features a band composed of gifted musicians from the breadth of the modern worship movement (Hillsong, Bethel, Vineyard, Elevation), a 30-piece choir, and a collection of stunning new prayer-soaked songs written and arranged in line with Ligertwood’s singular vision with Jesus at the center.
