BEC Recordings artist Jeremy Camp is slated to release an album that comes highly requested by his fans, Carried Me: The Worship Project on February 10th.

Currently writing for his sophomore release projected to hit stores fall 2004, BEC releases Carried Me in answer to numerous requests for Camp to share an essential and favorite part of his live show - worship. Performing worship is not something new for him, nor is it a recently added segment to his concert play list.

In the mid 1990’s Camp was leading worship and playing shows across the Southern California area. A few years later as he sat in the hospital room next to his dying wife he first sang the song “Revive Me” – a song that will be included on Carried Me. The compilation of songs in this project provides an outline of the faith that has carried Camp through life’s highs and lows. The track listing includes other original songs such as “Longing Heart” as well as reworked standards, “Trust In You”.

“The songs are ones that have meant so much to me in my life,” comments Camp. “Each of them has a special place in my heart because I remember singing them at different times, good times and hard times,“ Camp explains.”

In addition to the variety of songs, Carried Me: The Worship Project also offers diversity in musical style as Camp has not strayed from the musical approach and message listeners have gravitated towards with his first project, Stay. Although songs can be delivered in many different ways, Camp knows that the most important element behind not only this album but any record he is a part of is the condition of his heart.

“If you’re really, truly worshipping God and they see your heart and they know your life, then people can respond to a heavy song because they can see it’s the passion behind the song that matters, continues Camp. “If it glorifies God, people are going to pick that up, no matter the style.”

“Jeremy Camp has been an inspiration to thousands and is he to me as well,” stated Brandon Ebel, President of BEC Recordings. “We feel blessed to be working with a godly artist who has such a high level of integrity. Carried Me is the perfect companion record to Stay, and will tide people over for the amazing new album he will put out in the fall of 2004.”

Stay has yielded multi-format radio hits, achieving three No. 1 songs with “Understand” and “I Still Believe” hitting No. 1 on CHR radio and “Take My Life” reaching the top spot on Rock radio. “I Still Believe” went top 5 on AC radio. His current single, “Right Here,” is currently at #13, debuting last week at #30 on the AC charts. “I Still Believe” is also featured on WOW 2004 and “Enough” appears on the new WOW Worship.

After touring with Festival Con Dios earlier this year, Camp headlined the “Stay Tour” this fall, averaging over 1,000 people a night with ten sell-outs in the first half of the tour. He will tour with Newsboys and Rebecca St. James this spring before hitting the main stages at the 2004 summer festivals.
