When singer-songwriter Jared Anderson arrived at a music studio to record fresh material, he and his band discussed what artistic direction they should take. Needing inspiration, Anderson remembered music they were listening to a few months prior. He started playing a well-known Christian song, “Rise Again,” and his band joined in. Suddenly, he realized the direction they needed wasn’t to create something new, but to breathe new life into something already cultivated.
When speaking with The Epoch Times, Anderson said the initial inspiration behind recording the classic spiritual anthem came about as a great way to kick off the recording session while he and his band warmed up. The ease in which the song came together was a surprise. He said that the group “wandered into it.”
