Join singer/songwriter Benjamin Garl Beaver as he discovers his namesake, his great-grandfather, the Rev. Garl Beaver. Namesake is an engaging concept worship EP that embodies the legacy of Garl's heart for the Gospel being proclaimed in song. Woven throughout the EP are original audio clips of Rev. Garl captured from a 1940's era wire recorder. The EP is a collection of creative worship songs that take the listener on an adventure. The 12th Century Hymn “Joy of Hearts” revives the rich and timeless wisdom of old as Garl creatively invites this poetry into the modern worship experience. The raw emotion expressed in the song 'greatest empathy' reflects the deep realization that God is not far off but rather shares in our pain. This journey can breathe life into the vacant, disconnected, and confused parts of the human heart. A tool for one to be reminded of the unconditional love of Christ. From the passionate and infectious “My Lord” to the tenderly honest duo “Your Bride,” these eclectic styles are all intentionally designed to create an atmosphere for worship.
