Aren’t you excited to hear that new music is coming from Gospel’s Brian Courtney Wilson? I know I am!! The new CD, So Proud, will be online and in stores everywhere on February 7, 2012.

I received a preview copy and I absolutely love it! It was good to hear the Brian Courtney Wilson flavor I enjoyed on the last CD, but So Proud takes that sound up a notch. Of course, I love the title track “So Proud,” but my favorites are “Grab and Hold” and “Storm in Mind.”

Preview Brian Courtney Wilson So Proud

Wilson believes God gave him So Proud when he was feeling especially discouraged and needed to remember the way to go.  He knew then that the song would anchor his next project, and his goal for the rest of the album was to assemble a group of songs that would convey what it means to live in God’s promise. Wilson wrote or collaborated on most of the songs, and served as co-producer for all of the tracks on the CD.

“It’s important to me that people see this as a body of work,” says Wilson.  “We’re really trying to tell a story about believing in the promise, pressing through to realize the promise and protecting the promise. I am praying that the songs on the album will encourage the world the way they have encouraged me.” So Proud features 12 new songs.  The album is produced by Stan Jones and co-produced by Brian Courtney Wilson with additional song producer’s credit by Aaron Lindsey and PJ Morton.

The CD cover of So Proud, the highly-anticipated new project from gospel sensation Brian Courtney Wilson, features a picture of Wilson as a baby wearing headphones. For Wilson, that serves as a reminder of both the theme of his album and the driving force of his career.

“Before my mom and dad knew I was going to be a singer, God had given them a promise to nurture into the person that I am today,” he says. “We are all given some promise, some vision for our future that we have to nurture, endure hard times for, and always believe in.”
