Artist Spotlight - Red Rocks Worship

Red Rocks Worship is the musical expression of Red Rocks Church based in Littleton, Colorado. One of the fastest-growing congregations in the country, Red Rocks Church has campuses across Colorado, Texas and even internationally in Belgium. In addition, Red Rocks Church has a robust prison ministry in partnership with God Behind Bars (GBB). Pastored by Shawn Johnson, the church takes its name from the beautiful, iconic topography that defines the region.

Red Rocks Worship’s breakthrough single, “Echo Holy,” from their critically acclaimed album, “Things of Heaven,” released in 2021. While the worship anthem spread like wildfire, igniting Sunday morning sets around the world with a chorus that brings the glory of heaven to life in an awe-inspiring manner, the song was simply a continuation of the mission the collective has been attempting to walk out since its parent church first opened its doors in 2005. The fluid community of creatives writes songs and leads people in worship with the goal of making heaven crowded.

With defining offerings like “Breakthrough,” “There’s No Way” and “Good Plans,” among others, Red Rocks Worship is gradually establishing themselves as a trusted resource for the church. Additionally, in recent years, primary songwriters for the group, like Kory Miller and Tyler Roberts, have collaborated with some of Nashville’s best lyricists, further elevating their status as a leading collective in the worship genre. Their latest project, “Ascend,” boasts writing contributions from revered songwriters, including Mia Fieldes, Jason Ingram, Mitch Wong, Jacob Sooter, David Leonard and Ethan Hulse — esteemed veterans of their craft who have penned Christian radio hits for artists like Lauren Daigle, Zach Williams, Andrew Ripp, CeCe Winans, Jeremy Camp, MercyMe, Passion and more.

“Our hope is that no matter where the listener finds themselves…they would take the next step in trusting God and living out the freedom that life with Him provides. We pray that through refining and purification, they would find themselves with clean hands and pure hearts, offering the highest praise to Jesus — the hope of the world!” Red Rocks Worship unanimously states in regards to their ultimate vision for their music. “We want listeners to realize that no matter where they are in life, they can take a step closer to Jesus. We don’t have to earn access, we have been freely given access.”
