Local Praise Band Releases Debut CD

Acoustic Grace sure ain’t music from your grandma’s hymnbook. They’re a tambourine-shaking, guitar-strumming, sweet harmony-singing praise band from Zion United Methodist Church. The band formed six years ago after singing and playing together for Sunday morning services. They’ve continued to play on Sundays, but now have their first CD, Lift It Up in Prayer, produced at House Project Studio in Cadott. Released on Nov. 4 at the church with eight original tracks, the CD has catchy drum-and-tambourine beats, flowing melodies of the flute, viola, and trumpet, plus a flawless blend of guitars and singer’s voices. The CD is available at Country Treasures, Uptown Consignments, and on their website chippewafallsumc.org. All sale profits benefit ministries within the church.
