AccuRadio Song Of The Day-One Sonic Society


Artist:One Sonic Society

Song:Great Are You Lord

Album:WOW Hits 2018


Fans of Praise & Worship (P&W) will want to check out One Sonic Society led by singer songwriter producer Jason Ingram. The 2016 single Great Are You Lord was a top ten Christian hit. Most CCM fans should be familiar with the British band Delerious?. They had success in the late 90s until they split up in 2009. Delerious? guitarist Stuart Garrard (Stu G) was hanging around Nashville looking for Christian artists to work with when he met Jason Ingram. Ingram is a Dove award winning songwriter and producer who has worked with Lauren Daigle and Elevation Worship and Maverick City Music. They decided to form a band. Garrard brought in Delerious? bassist Jonathan Thatcher and Ingram brought in Hillsong UNITED drummer Paul Mabury. They called themselves One Sonic Society and they signed with the label Essential Worship. They started out by releasing EPs in 2010 and 2011 followed by the album Forever Reign in 2012 and the live album Live at the Tracking Room. The singles Forever Reign (2011) and Never Once both charted. Meanwhile, all four guys continued to keep busy. They returned with the 2015 EP Make a Way. The single Great Are You Lord reached #9 on the Christian Singles chart and was certified Gold. The EP is only available as a digital download. But you can get Great Are You Lord on this 2CD various artists budget comp. Since then One Sonic Society has released a couple of singles with guest vocalists like Big Daddy Weave lead singer Mike Weaver and Vertical Worship. The last of these singles was released in 2019. It doesn't look like they are still working together. Garrard released a solo album in 2017. Ingram is a very busy producer and Mabury frequently works with him while still working for Hillsang UNITED. I suppose One Sonic Society could reform at some point. But they were never a full time band and Ingram in particular is very busy as a producer. Here's One Sonic Society performing Great Are You Lord on Essential Worship Song Sessions.
