altIn 2006, husband-wife Christian music duo WaterMark released their final CD, A Grateful People, before disbanding. I was sad to see them go and sure wore out that CD!
Being a college student during the time of the birthing of the whole Passion worship conference movement in the late 90s when Christy and Nathan Nockels got their start, I listened to them before they were famous I guess you could say, just as two singers amid many others on the Passion live worship CDs. Christy's serene voice and Nathan's acoustic guitar worship songs were always so distinct though, and WaterMark's songs were those that you could truly get quiet and enter into the presence of God.

So, when I heard that Christy was coming back as a solo artist, I was thrilled, and am eagerly awaiting her Life Light Up (Sixstepsrecords/EMI CMG) CD that releases June 2. Making a comeback on Passion conferences founder Louie Giglio's label, Sixstepsrecords, Christy is currently touring with labelmate Chris Tomlin on his Hello Love tour, debuting her new single “Life Light Up.”

To hold you over, if you're counting down the days till Life Light Up's release like myself, visit her Web site, where you can download her “Life Light Up” single for free and find out more information on Christy's select tour dates with Chris Tomlin.
